So we have figured out by now that either you or your loved one drinks 8th Continent Soymilk. First let me say, good call!

Secondly I want you to ask yourself- why? Is it because it tastes SO awesome? Or because of lactose intolerance? Or maybe you are a vegan or have dairy allergies or want to keep a gluten-free diet! Sometimes it is difficult to prepare a meal or sometimes even harder- a dessert- when keeping all of these things in mind.

But don’t you worry! For Valentine’s Day my friend Annette Ooyevaar over at Veg Web hooked us up with an awesome and simple recipe that is vegan and delicious!

Ingredients:

1 box 12 oz. Mori Nu Soft Silken Tofu, do not use low fat, do not drain
1 12 oz. bag vegan chocolate chips, melted on low heat and cooled
1-2 Tblsp. Vanilla – you can use whatever flavor you like
1 cup 8th Continent  Soymilk

Directions:

Put the tofu in a blender and process until very smooth.  Add the melted, cooled chocolate and process until well combined, you will have to stop and scrape the sides of the blender.  Add the 8th Continent Soymilk and vanilla and process until well blended. Pour into a covered container and chill until ready to use.

Freeze in an ice cream freezer according to manufacturer directions.  This makes a lot of tofu ice cream mix so you may only be able to freeze part of it.  I use my Donvier, which is really easy, I have ice cream in 15 minutes without ice, salt or a lot of cranking.  My family loves this recipe and it can even be made with melted high quality white chocolate.  Enjoy!

Serves: 8

Preparation time: 15 minutes
