Avoiding a recent disaster, I returned to tweak my longstanding recipe (instant pudding mix + extra firm silken tofu). It came out really good, without that tofu flavor assaulting you. It's noon and I've already eaten it as a filling in 2 pieces of pie.
The addition of flavored extract helps negate the tofu aftertaste that was bugging me. The addition of fat improves mouthfeel and makes it more dessert-like.
Formula
- 1 box instant pudding mix
- 2 tsp flavored extract
- 2 tbs melted butter or margarine
- 4 oz coconut milk
- 1 block of extra firm silken tofu
Drain the tofu. Put everything in a bowl and blend it together until it's totally smooth. That's it.
Yesterday I used vanilla pudding mix and coconut extract in this recipe. I toasted some coconut to sprinkle on top. It was definitely better the next day.
