It has a clever secret ingredient.

Right after I graduated from college, I became obsessed with healthier dessert recipes.

But there are a few recipes from that era that have stood the test of time.

It takes just a few minutes and two (count them, two!)

ingredients to make; no real cooking required.

And as a bonus, its full of protein thanks to a clever ingredientsilken tofu!

I wouldnt recommend using extra firm/super firm or high-protein tofu.

I promise you wont be able to taste the tofu in this recipe.

The chocolate covers it beautifully.

Choosing the Right Chocolate

you could customize this pudding to your personal preference.

If you like lighter milk chocolate, use your favorite milk chocolate bar or chocolate chips.

I ended up adding 2 tablespoons of sugar to balance the dark chocolate.

(it’s possible for you to also melt the chocolate over a double boiler.)

Once melted, combine the chocolate, tofu, and salt in a high-powered blender or food processor.

Blend until smooth and luscious, making sure to stop and scrape down the sides.

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until chilled.

Serve with whatever optional toppings you like!

This pudding is best stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
