Introduction
Ar you making a funny face at the idea of tofu in your cookies? Because tofu has pretty much no flavor of its own it just ads a nice bit of moisture and a light texture to these delicious cookies. Go try it!GF if you can tolerate oats, but I'll attempt to work out a "no oats" version here one of these days for those of you who can't.

Ingredients
-
1/2 block soft tofu
3 oz fat free cream cheese
1/3 c peanut butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c molasses
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 c oat flour**
1/2 c oatmeal
1 t baking soda
3 oz chocolate chips
**Oat flour can be made by pulverizing dry oats in a blender or food processor
Directions
Cream together tofu, cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth.
Blend in molasses, egg and brown sugar, scraping bowl to ensure even mixing. Add vanilla.
Carefully add oat flour, oatmeal, salt and baking soda. Mix until evenly blended.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop in spoonfuls onto cookie sheet (parchment paper is a nice touch if you have some). These cookies tend to grow upwards, not outwards so they need not be spaced far apart.
Bake at 375 for 12 minutes.
