Chocolate Tofu Pudding

I know tofu pudding may sound gross to some people, but this one is great tasting and easy to make. The texture almost has more of a chocolate mousse texture than a pudding texture. The flavor is chocolaty with just a hint of the coffee flavor. Just so you know, the alcohol doesn't cook off completely. Serves about 8 people.
Alton Brown's original recipe:

Ingredients:
13 ounces semisweet chocolate chips, or dark chocolate chips if you like.
1/3 Cup coffee liqueur
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pound silken tofu, you can't use any other kind of tofu texture. I used the lite silken tofu and that works too.
1 Tablespoon honey
1/8 teaspoon table salt
  1. Melt the chocolate, coffee liqueur, and vanilla extract in a medium sized heavy duty sauce pan over low heat stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is completely melted. Be careful that the chocolate doesn't burn! Check out Alton Brown's method of melting the chocolate if you don't like mine. Once everything is melted, set aside the chocolate mixture in a small bowl.
  2. Combine the tofu and honey in either a blender or food processor, and spin until smooth, about 1 minute. Add in the chocolate mixture and spin until combined. Pour mixture into your container(s) and refrigerate for about 2 hours.

  1. I tried this out, and it was very good. I'm not a big fan of tofu, but this was beyond good. It was perfect!
