QUICK AND EASY CHOCOLATE PUDDING

This is a super easy recipe that will take you less than 10 minutes to make.  Silken tofu is the star ingredient that gives this pudding a delicate, smooth, and creamy texture. It is a great healthy treat packed with nutrients.  If you haven’t yet, please give silken tofu a try. You won’t be disappointed.

WHAT IS SILKEN TOFU?

Silken tofu is undrained and unpressed tofu. It has a softer consistency than regular tofu and feels more like solidified pudding or custard. It’s available in several consistencies depending on how much soy protein it contains: soft, medium-firm, firm, and extra-firm (read more on different types of silken tofu here).

It’s a great addition to your smoothies, puddings, and desserts. It’s also great for salad dressings, sauces, and dips.

You can also use it as an egg substitute in baking (1/4 cup silken tofu to substitute one egg). It doesn’t require any special preparation before cooking.

A 100-gram serving of silken tofu contains 1.4 grams of carbohydrate so it’s a recommended food ingredient for people on keto diets or those who are trying to lose weight.

HOW TO MAKE SILKEN TOFU CHOCOLATE PUDDING

STEP 1

Place all the ingredients into a blender and process until smooth and creamy.

If you are allergic to peanuts or you just don’t like the taste of the peanut butter, just replace it with other nut butter that you like. Instead of rum, you can add a pinch of vanilla powder, cinnamon, or maybe even a gingerbread spice mix.  Also, you can substitute date syrup with agave or maple syrup.

STEP 2

Serving suggestion: Serve the pudding in jars and garnish with berries and mint leaves.

The pudding is ready to eat right away or you can chill it in the fridge for 15 minutes. That way, the pudding will thicken and taste even better.

This chocolate pudding looks like a dream come true. I used to get a fabulous dark chocolate tofu pudding (with almonds and raspberries on top) at a restaurant many years ago. That restaurant closed down and I have been looking for the perfect dark chocolate pudding recipe ever since. This looks like a very close recipe. I do have one question. You said that silken tofu comes in four consistencies, “soft, medium-firm, firm and extra-firm.” Does it matter which consistency you use for your silken tofu chocolate pudding recipe?

Hi, Roni! For smoothies and puddings, I always use soft silken tofu. You can read more about different types of silken tofu here ->> https://garlicdelight.com/silken-tofu/. Hope that helps!

Hey there, I want to try your recipe but have never frozen bananas before. How should I do it, to avoid browning? Thanks!

Hi! To freeze banana slices, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel your bananas, then cut into 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices. Arrange them into a single layer on the baking sheet and make sure bananas are not overlapping with each other. Flash-freeze for two-three hours. Afterwards, put them in freezer-safe container and store them in the freezer. Hope that helps!

To get frozen bananas – Put the whole ripe bananas in the freezer for a week or longer. When needed, just take out the frozen banana from the freezer and peel it easily. You will still get the white fresh flesh of the banana.
