Introduction

I added a little bit of home-rendered, organically-sourced tallow and some tangy cream cheese to my standard tofu-based chocolate chip cookie recipe, packing in a ton of chocolate candy for good measure and using half oat flour for a velvety, chewy-soft texture. There is just the *tiniest* hint of savoury flavour that makes these truly stand out!

Ingredients

    1.2 oz tallow, melted
    1.2 oz butter, melted
    4 oz low fat silken tofu
    1 tbsp custard powder
    ¼ tsp nutmeg
    1 tsp salt
    1 tbsp vanilla
    ½ cup sugar
    ¾ cup brown sugar
    ⅓ cup Truvia Baking Blend
    ¼ cup non-hydrogenated shortening
    ¼ cup cream cheese
    1 ½ cups flour
    1 ½ cups oat flour
    1 tsp baking soda
    2 cups additions (chopped chocolate bars, M&Ms, Raisinets, baking chips, Skor bits, chopped nuts, seeds, dried fruit or dry cereal)

Directions

Puree tallow, butter, tofu, custard powder, nutmeg, salt and vanilla.
Cream sugars, Truvia, shortening and cream cheese until well mixed.
Add tofu mixture and beat well.
Beat in the flours and baking soda.
Fold in the additions.
Cover with plastic and chill 1 hour (you can wrap again in foil and freeze at this point, or portion into balls and freeze those for as-you-need baking).
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place onto parchment-lined cookie sheets.
Bake, 1 sheet at a time, for 11 minutes.
Cool completely on sheets.
