Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz silken tofu
  • 12 oz vegan dark chocolate choose a high-quality chocolate that you like the taste of!

Optional Whipped Cream Topping

  • ½ cup vegan heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

Optional Toppings

  • fresh raspberries
  • mint leaves
  • powdered sugar
  • cacao powder for dusting the pan

Instructions
 

  • Start by melting the chocolate. Microwave the chocolate in 30-second increments, stir with a fork, then repeat until the chocolate has fully melted.
  • Add the melted chocolate to a high-speed blender along with the silken tofu that you have *fully* drained from the water. Blend until you get a very smooth and creamy texture.
  • Immediately transfer the chocolate mixture to a springform pan (I used a 6-inch pan) that you have lined with parchment paper, gently greased, and optionally, dusted with cacao powder (so that the cake doesn't stick to the pan).
  • Note: Try and quickly transfer the cake to the pan because the coldness of the tofu will harden the melted chocolate quickly.
  • Refrigerate the cake for at least an hour, until the chocolate has fully hardened.
  • If you want to add the topping, use a stand mixer to whip the vegan heavy whipping cream on high speed until stiff peaks are formed. Add the sugar and vanilla and whip those in.
  • Top the cake with the whipping cream, fresh raspberries, and mint leaves, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Work fast. Once you’ve mixed the chocolate and tofu mixture, work quickly and pour it into the prepared pan immediately, as the chocolate can start to harden once it comes in contact with the cold tofu.
  • Let it chill. This cake needs at least an hour to set properly so be sure to plan in advance so you don't feel the need to rush.
