Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

16 ounces silken tofu -- (16 to 19 oz) drained

1/2 cup soy cream cheese

1/3 cup superfine sugar

4 tablespoons dark rum

2 tablespoons brandy

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1 1/4 cups cold espresso or strong coffee

20 savoiardi biscuits or ladyfingers

1 1/2 ounces dark chocolate

 

Combine the tofu, cream cheese, sugar, 1 tablespoon of the rum, the brandy, and

lemon juice in a food processor and whirl until well-blended. Set aside.

 

Set out an 8-inch square baking dish. Combine the coffee with the remaining 3

tablespoons rum in a shallow bowl. Turn the biscuits, one at a time, in the

liquid, working quickly. They will just begin to soften. Line the baking dish

with them as you go. Ten biscuits should cover the bottom of the baking dish

completely.

 

Spread half the tofu mixture over the biscuits. Grate 1 ounce of the chocolate

and sprinkle half of it over the tofu.

 

Repeat, making a second layer of biscuits and cream, topped with grated

chocolate. Chop the remaining chocolate into small chunks. Sprinkle them over

the top of the tiramisu.

 

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to

overnight. (This dessert will keep for up to 3 days, covered and refrigerated.)

Serve cold.

NOTES : This creamy dessert is what happens when the best chocolate is combined

with tofu, savoiardi biscuits (Italian ladyfingers), and a bit of creativity.

It is the perfect choice if you like luscious desserts that are not too sweet.

Savoiardi are dry ladyfinger cookies. They are available at Italian food stores

and some supermarkets.
