« on: August 25, 2009, 11:25:04 am »
This recipe for ice cream has a texture just like dairy ice cream.  Even my dairy eating friends love it!!  :D


Choc Tofu Ice Cream:
Serves 2-3 servings:
Ingredients:

2 x packets of silken tofu
4 tblsp Agave Syrup  (or honey)
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
scan 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
3 tblsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder



Preparation:

Mix 1 1/2 packets of tofu, agave syrup, cinnamon, sea salt and cocoa powder in the Thmx on speed 7 for 10-15 secs.
Place in a tightly covered container and freeze.

Once frozen, remove from freezer, let sit at room temperature for 5 mins and chop into chunks.  Place the remaining silken tofu (1/2 packet) and the frozen chunks and blend for 10secs on speed 7.  Serve immediately



Tips/Hints:
Some ideas for optional add-ins for blending in on the final stage:
peanut butter
nuts
choc chips

Thanks squirrel - I love silken tofu - MrsT doesn't - but she ate a fair bit while we were "courting" - once I found out that she doesn't like it she stopped buying it.

She love ice cream though and this may fool her and help her calcium levels
