Ingredients

  • 125 ml (½ cup) graham cracker crumbs
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) ground flax seeds
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegan LeGrand Butter
  • 100 g dark chocolate
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 300 g soft silken tofu, at room temperature (see note)
  • 1 container (454 g) LeGrand Cherry and Rose Crumble Yogurt

Note: Using chilled tofu would cause the chocolate to solidify, hence the need to let it come to room temperature.

Preparation

  1. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, ground flax seeds, and butter. Microwave for 30 seconds, then mix with a fork. Divide the mixture evenly among 4 dessert glasses and refrigerate.
  2. In another small microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and plant-based milk for 50 seconds, stirring halfway through. 
  3. Transfer the mixture to a food processor, add the tofu, and blend until smooth. Add the yogurt and blend again.
  4. Pour the mixture into the dessert glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Garnish with fresh fruits or chocolate shavings, if desired.
