Description[]

Lori Peterkin of Albuquerque uses high-protein, shelf-stable tofu, (non-refrigerated) instead of butter in chocolate frosting. The frosting is so smooth, cool, and creamy that her kids also like it as a pudding.

  • Makes 2 cups; enough for a 2-layer 8- or 9-inch cake, a 9- by 13-inch cake, or 2 dozen cupcakes.

  1. Pour chocolate into a microwave safe bowl.
  2. Heat in a microwave oven on half power until chocolate is soft, 2 to 2½ minutes.
