Ingredients
- 1 cup couscous
- 2 ½ cups water
- 1 ½ cups sucanat or unrefined sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 Tbsp Red Ape Cinnamon®
- ¼ cup cocoa
- 1 10 oz. package chocolate chips
- 10 oz. firm tofu
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
-
In a saucepan, combine water, couscous, sucanat, cinnamon, and cocoa. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally and cook until liquid is absorbed and mixture is thickened (15 to 20 minutes). Add vanilla and stir. Spread mixture into a 9-inch spring form pan.
-
In a separate saucepan, melt chocolate chips slowly over low heat, stirring constantly. Transfer to a blender, add tofu and maple syrup and blend until smooth. Pour mixture over the couscous mixture and chill for at least an hour.
-
For a variation, you can spread toasted pecans on top of the couscous mixture before pouring the chocolate layer. You can also top the dessert with chocolate chips, strawberries, raspberries, or dried coconut.
