TOFU LATTE SPICE CREAM

Wednesday, October 21, 2009
Posted by ZOMT


How good is this for dessert?! High protein ice cream! I love you vegans for giving me fantastic recipe and food ideas! Super easy to whip up, and you don't even have to freeze it; try it just chilled in the fridge as a mousse...rich and creamy.
I have also made choc strawberry frozen tofu by adding melted dark chocolate and strawberry puree, and am going to be trying many more ideas too. I think most fruits will work well with this. Has anyone tried making tofu ice cream?




Very Nice Cream
4 serves / approx 140 calories per serve
approx macronutrient breakdown: fat 5g, carb 14g, protein 12g 

Ingredients 
375g high protein firm tofu
2 tbsp organic rice syrup
Stevia liquid to taste
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 fresh organic espresso  

Method
Cut tofu in manageable chunks and place in food processor. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary. Add rice syrup, spices, espresso and vanilla extract and process again until the consistency is be creamy and mousse like.)  
Spoon into a container and smooth out, then freeze until firm, then put through the food processor again to get a really smooth consistency. Or just eat it straight away like a mousse!
Allow to soften a little at room temperature to serve.



Delicious sandwiched between two Treacle & Spice ZOMTCookies too!

Are those ceramic cups or paper cups? They are so cute. Where did you buy them from? :)

This sounds...actually amazing. Am a bit in love with tofu and also with ice cream, even though frozen tofu sounds a bit random I have a feeling I'll be trying this very soon.

Tara - I've linked to where you can buy the ceramic cups from above :)
Laura - it sounds random, but it tastes awesome! let me know what you think!

it's not vegan if theirs honey in it...maybe sub with agave?

ZOMT said...

I didn't actually say it was vegan...I just found similar tofu ice cream recipes on vegan websites that's all. But yes agave syrup would work fine, I have used it in the past as well :)
