beautiful chocolate pots this would be brilliant for a romantic interlude yes

or frankly anyone with loads of friends or kids but they're also

vegan-friendly. The mystery ingredient tofu

yes yes yes I know. Shush. Shh.

Tofu. No, no stop, listen

No, stop, stop, listen.

Okay this is a vegan chocolate dish and this is fantastic because

actually we got the benefits of having less saturated fat so it's

healthier but you can really really taste the quality of the chocolate

so this is how we roll guys we're starting off with really good

quality dark chocolate eighty-five percent cocoa solids

two packs of these, 200 grams, give it a slap

and lets open up our chocolate

and that just sprinkle in, bowl

over some water now this will slowly melt

into the bowl just give it a little stir every 30 seconds or something like that

but don't rush it

then the tofu this is the point where cream would normally go into some kinda

chocolate mousse or some

sort of chocolate pot. Just put into a clean tea towel, has to be clean

So there's one pack and two packs. So there's 700g of tofu

in that clean teatowel. Grab up the corners and

bring it together and twist it and get rid of the residual

excess moisture

go into a food processor. Throw in all of the tofu

just like that. Just the zest of one lime

Try and use one of these microplanes, or fine graters

Don't use the coarse ones, it's got to be just the green skin

here. Give it a whack. So go in with one tablespoon of

beautiful dark rum. Then I'm going to go in with 2 teaspoons

of vanilla bean paste, you can use extract

but this paste, I just love the flavour it's really really good

a little pinch of salt. Back over here we've got our chocolate looking good

there's a few little bits in there so we'll come back to that in a second. Now

a 160 grams of maple syrup which is basically

all of this and then another little secret ingredient

chilli. It's a bit fashionable I know, but I don't want to add much to it, like a good pinch

So I'm just going to add that chilli into there. I'm gonna take my chocolate off

the heat now. You can see this is completely melted look at that

beautiful so let this cool down. I'm going to whizz this up for about two minutes to get

super silky smooth then I'll start adding the chocolate

okay now it's super smooth, now we can start adding the chocolate

Okay so let' have a little look in here. I mean look at that I mean

it is chocolate heaven

you know its totally convincing I know you weren't convinced by the tofu at

the beginning

but let me just go over the logic just one last time

Look I'm all into cream it's delicious its rich you can put air bubbles into it

but if it's the really good chocolate which we want to celebrate

you know having it simpler and cleaner you can really taste it

Let's have a little taste

Really really good so it's time to think about serving it over here

I've got some glasses, little expresso cups are super cute

this is enough for about 8 little chocolate pots

so I'm just gonna edge it out and this is a chocolate pot so we don't want

loads if you wanna put into something and

shake it flat you can, but I quite like seeing

the ripples because you see just how silky it is then

three of my favourite things on the planet, maple syrup, dark rum

and chocolate we can have real fun with this. You can take

a little cantucci biscuit you know with

little pistachios in it and it smash up beautiful. You could take

an amaretti biscuits and smash that up, take your favorite

hobnob or biscuit or whatever gets you going

and bash that up, even some nice nuts

So anything that's going to compliment the lovely chocolate

experience so I'm just gonna take some nice little gingernuts, just bash these up

to a nice fine powder, something crunchy

is going to be amazing and just put a spoon like this

you could just shave a bit of extra chocolate on the top

you can also just get an everyday grater, and do exactly the same

pistachios so I would take these nuts now

and just put them on top of one

So there you go guys beautiful vegan chocolate pots
