Tofu comes in many forms. Firm or extra-firm tofu is usually used in a stir fry or as a replacement for meat in a recipe. Silky tofu blends perfectly into a smoothie. In this recipe, it is used as a base to create a creamy and tasty dessert.

No time to make the cranberry-walnut topping? You could replace it with crumbled Dark Chocolate and Raspberry Chocrocrunch Bites!
