Ingredients

4 servings

¼ cup raw cashews 1 ripe banana 1 cup ice cubes 3 ounces extra-firm tofu, pressed to remove water 2 Medjool dates, pitted 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon soy milk, or more as needed

Roasted Eggplant Chips

Instructions

Blend creamy chocolate mix

Start by soaking the cashews in a bowl of water for about 1 to 3 hours, then drain them well. Next, toss the soaked cashews, banana, ice cubes, tofu, dates, cacao powder, vanilla extract, and a teaspoon of soy milk into your blender. Blend everything until it’s nice and smooth. If the mixture feels too thick to blend, you can add a little more soy milk, but just enough to keep it creamy without getting runny. Once blended, gently fold in the cherries and chocolate chips. Scoop it into a bowl, and enjoy your creamy, chocolatey treat!
