These brains look gross, but taste great! Another exciting creation brought to you by the magic of silken tofu!
Servings
Ingredients
- 11 oz Extra Firm Silken Tofu
- 1 cup Soy Milk
- 4 tbsp Sugar
- 3 tbsp Strawberry Powder I used Anthony's
- 2 1/2 tsp Agar Agar Powder
- 1/2 cup Cherry Pie Filling
Instructions
- Blend the silken tofu. I use an immersion blender.
- Place the silicone brand molds on a baking sheet or something flat and sturdy.
- Add soy milk, sugar, strawberry, and agar agar to a pot.
- Whisk together really well.
- Cook on medium-low heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring continuously. Set a timer to make sure you cook it for long enough; this is really important to ensure that the agar agar will set. You should reach a very low boil.
- Once you've cooked the strawberry milk mixture, add the blender silken tofu, and whisk it together well.
- The next few steps need to be done quickly, because the mixture does start setting pretty fast.
- Fill each of the brain molds up about halfway with the silken tofu mixture. Also push some of the tofu mixture up the sides of each brain mold.
- Add about 2 tsp of cherry pie filling to each of the brain molds. This should be in the middle of the molds and shouldn't touch the sides.
- Top off each brain mold with the remaining silken tofu mixture.
- Allow these to get to about room temperature on the counter before putting in the fridge.
- Throw in the fridge for about 20 minutes or until the brains have set!
