How to Make Black Currant And Tofu Whip

Wash 1 cup of black currants (or blackberries).
Combine 1 block (14 oz) silken tofu, 1 cup washed black currants, 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread ½ cup hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Once cooled slightly, roughly chop the roasted hazelnuts using a knife or food processor.
If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon crème de cassis for an extra layer of black currant flavor.
Pour the black currant tofu whip into individual serving dishes or a pretty bowl.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the whip to chill thoroughly before serving.
Garnish generously with the toasted hazelnuts before serving.
