Introduction

I know it sounds weird: chocolate cake and tofu, together? It's so tasty, and a much healthier way to eat cake! I know it sounds weird: chocolate cake and tofu, together? It's so tasty, and a much healthier way to eat cake!

Ingredients

    1 box super moist chocolate cake mix
    1-300g block of soft/dessert tofu
    1/4 cup water

Directions

With a food processor or blender (I use my hand/stick blender), mix cake mix and tofu together.
Once mixed, add 1/4 cup water and blend again until smooth.
Pour into baking dish and cook according to the directions on the cake mix box, depending what type of dish you use. Sometimes I make cupcakes, sometimes I make a cake and cut it into squares.
DO NOT add the oil/egg/whatever else the cake mix box says you need - the tofu takes the place of all of these!

    I made this using a reduced sugar devils food cake mix, 454g grams of tofu and 1 cup of water. It made 18 generously sized cup cakes and topped each with melted semi-sweet chocolate (just 127 calories and 3g of fat each!). Absolutely delicious - my husband LOVES them! - 4/12/08

    I made 2 thinner cakes then I put fat free cool whip and watered down low cal raspberry jam in the middle, then drizzle both over the top with fresh raspberries. I was skeptical (never really like tofu) but now it's my favorite! I loved it! - 6/6/07

    This is great. I used a supermoist carrot cake mix instead. I feel much better eating this than the traditional manner and nobody noticed anything amiss with the carrot cake. :D - 1/8/09
