Tofu Chocolate Ice Cream (no dairy)Ingredients (use vegan versions): 1 box 12 oz. Mori Nu Soft Silken Tofu, do not use low fat, do not drain
1 12 oz. bag vegan chocolate chips, melted on low heat and cooled
1-2 Tblsp. Vanilla - you can use whatever flavor you like
1 cup Rice Milk (you can substitute with
soy milk, Almond Milk etc.)
Directions:Put the tofu in a blender and process until very smooth. Add the melted, cooled chocolate and process until well combined, you will have to stop and scrape the sides of the blender. Add the rice milk and vanilla and process until well blended. Pour into a covered container and chill until ready to use.
Freeze in an ice cream freezer according to manufacturer directions. This makes a lot of tofu ice cream mix so you may only be able to freeze part of it. I use my Donvier, which is really easy, I have ice cream in 15 minutes without ice, salt or a lot of cranking. My family loves this recipe and it can even be made with melted high quality white chocolate. Enjoy!
Serves: 8
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Oh yeah, yeah yeah I love it! When you first put in the tofu and chocolate, it tastes like pudding. (keep in mind I sample EVERYTHING as I go) My non- veg fiancee is in love with this too. I recommend Trop Source chips, and for extra heaven, throwing in some strawberries (think about it- chocolate covered strawberries, and its all vegan!!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This never makes it to the ice cream stage - we eat it as mousse and its always a hit for company! I use malt-sweetened
carob chips and a teaspoon of coffee for a mocha taste.

Think you don't like tofu? Think again! Excellent, excellent, excellent!!! I used Silk Soylatte for the liquid, and added a dash of cinnamon and a drop of almond flavor - spectacular!! As soon as this is all gone - which won't be long - I'm planninng to try using some different fruits and flavorings in search of a treat that's just as yummy and a teensy bit healthier

I'll have to save this for special occasions!

The recipe sounds great, howe'ver: Mori Nu Soft Silken Tofu This isn't something I'm familiar with - I'm guessing that it is a brand name, and a brand that isn't available up here (Oz). (Yes, up. Northern Hemispherians have been looking at the world upside down for centuries...)

Anyway, can someone elaborate/translate this one for me? I'd really like to give this recipe a try.

An elaboration/translation: about the tofu- I'm going to try this with Nasoya brand tofu, silken, which is the brand up here. I'm pretty sure any brand would probably do. We just bought an ice cream maker that works like this: you freeze the bowl, then the mixer mixes the ingredients and then you freeze it. I think this is the type the recipe is referring to.

I'm in Oz too, I use fresh silken tofu of any variety from the asian supermarket, or I think you can get it from Coles.

Oh my! You don't have to be vegan or vegetarian to love this. I just made a batch in the blender and I'm not sure its going to move on to the ice cream maker. This stuff is so good. Were just using Whole Foods brand chocolate chips.

WOW!! This is amazing...so rich, dense, and chocolatey! This has the texture of gelato, I believe--super creamy and dense. The chocolate flavor is pretty intense. Next time, I may either reduce the chocolate or add another cup of milk.

this turned out really good and you don't need an ice cream maker to do this. i made a couple changes the second time i made this recipe though.... no vanilla, i think it ruined the taste the first time i made it. i also added peanut butter, and used way less chocolate - one 12oz bag is too much. i used about 2/3 of the bag, and kept some of the melted chocolate that i added at the very end to the prapared ice cream. really gave it an extra crunch, it was delicious.
