I originally got the recipe on line a while back and then Martha
mentioned
it once and renewed my interest.

I make it with a block of lite tofu - firm or extra firm, it doesn't


matter;

an ounce of melted baker's chocolate (The unsweetened stuff), and splenda


to

taste. It goes in the food processor where I let it go until it's all
whipped up. Sometimes I add 1/4-1/2 c of flavored soy milk (sweetened


with

splenda). I've also added unsweetened cocoa powder when I need that
extra
chocolate kick and I've used extracts and davinci sugar free syrup to


change

the flavor a bit. I get two generous servings from that at about 160 cal
each.

If sugar isn't a problem, the best way to do it is to use semi-sweet
chocolate chips (melted).

Actually, I find it works best with silken tofu, not the firm stuff.
YMMV.

Martha


Someone mentioned pumpkin and tofu... I got silken tofu and a can of
pumpkin at the store today. Any ideas how to combine it into some sort of
pumpkin pudding our mousse?

Food processor.

I'm sorry, I forgot there are many kinds of tofu. I do use silken.
Actually it's silken lite, but it comes in firm or extra firm - my only
choices up here.

Oh, I mean the softer stuff. But if firm is your only choice and it works,
great! I get mine at the Asian market around the corner.
