Ingredients

Couscous Bottom:

2-1/4 cups water

1-1/4 cup sugar

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1 cup couscous

1 tbsp vanilla

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

Chocolate Cream Topping:

10 ounces (1-1/2 cup) dairy-free chocolate chips

2 boxes firm silken tofu

3 Tablespoon maple syrup

Directions

In a medium saucepan combine water, cocoa, sugar, and couscous. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally and cook until thickened (10 to 15 minutes). Add vanilla and stir. Spread mixture into a 9-inch springform pan (one that has a removable side).

Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler. If unavailable, add water to a saucepan and place a metal bowl over the steam to create a homemade version. Melting chocolate directly over an electric stove will not work -- the chocolate will crystalize. Transfer chocolate to a blender, add tofu, and blend. Add maple syrup and blend again until smooth.

Pour filling evenly over couscous. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve cold. Top with fresh fruit such as sliced strawberries or kiwi.
