Ingredients

FOR THE RASPBERRY CREAM:
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 (12-ounce) package firm silken tofu
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
FOR THE CHOCOLATE CREAM:
  • 1 (12-ounce) package firm silken tofu
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
GARNISH:
  • ½ cup fresh raspberries, for garnish

Instructions

  1. To make the raspberry cream, combine the raspberries and maple syrup in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until the raspberries start to break down, about 10 minutes.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a blender. Add the tofu and lemon juice, and blend until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate the mixture until completely cool.
  3. To make the chocolate cream, place the tofu, cocoa, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt in a blender. Purée until smooth and creamy.
  4. To serve, fill six (6-ounce) parfait cups halfway with the chocolate cream. Fill the ramekins the remainder of the way with the raspberry cream.
  5. Chill for 1 hour before serving. The chocolate and raspberry layers can be made separately 1 day ahead and then assembled to serve.
  6. Just before serving, garnish each ramekin with a few of the fresh raspberries.

Any substitute for the tofu? I have hormonal problems whenever using soy ingredients.

Used strawberries rather than raspberries. This is an incredibly easy recipe that yields a luscious dessert.

My young daughter made these for us and they were delicious!!! That was many years ago. This week we are celebrating her high school graduation and we came across the recipe. She wants to make them again. So good and refreshing!
