Instructions

In a food processor, mix the tofu until completely smooth (I use my vitamix).
In a double boiler, gently heat the chocolate until completely melted, then remove from heat.
Warm the soy milk slightly and stir in the cocoa. Add it to the melted chocolate and stir to mix.
Combine the chocolate mixture with the pureed tofu in the food processor and process for about 2 minutes, until completely combined and light in texture.
Store in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Notes

This dairy-free dessert is vegetarian-friendly but if you use vegan chocolate, you can make an entirely vegan version.
