Here’s why you’ll fall in love with this recipe:
- You’ll have this Chocolate Tofu Pudding ready in just around 15 minutes.
- Thanks to the blender, it’s a breeze to make, no complicated steps involved.
- With silken tofu as the star ingredient, you get a creamy, protein-rich pudding without even a hint of tofu taste.
- It’s decadently rich, sweet, and oh-so-creamy, satisfying your sweet tooth in the best way possible.
- Plus, it fits various dietary preferences – it’s vegan, plant-based, dairy-free, gluten-free, and grain-free.

Here are some handy tips to ensure your pudding turns out perfect every time:
- Use a blender, food processor, or immersion blender for smooth blending. Hand-mashing won’t give you the same silky texture.
- Opt for silken tofu for that classic pudding consistency, or try firm tofu if you prefer a thicker, mousse-like texture.
- Choose a sweet chocolate for the best flavor profile – bitterness won’t do justice to this dessert.
Now, let’s address some common questions:
- Worried about tasting the tofu? Don’t be! Follow the recipe as is, and you won’t even know it’s there.
- Wondering which tofu to use? Silken tofu works best for that creamy pudding texture, while firm tofu gives you a thicker, mousse-like result.
