Holy moly, I like tofu's flavor, but not in my chocolate desserts! Especially not since I made this for a special occasion. After tasting it, I threw in 2 T. cocoa powder; 2 T. almond butter; and some vanilla, salt, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Now the flavor's mostly fixed, but I'm still waiting to see if it will set up in the fridge. Otherwise, smoothies, I guess. Note: I made it with vanilla almond milk and Ghirardelli semisweet chips to avoid dairy--but I don't think they're at fault.
