Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 4 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate, chopped
• 0.125 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 cup cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup whole wheat flour
• 0.5 (12 ounce) package silken tofu, drained

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool before slicing into bars.

Step 3

Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside.

Step 4

Place tofu in a blender; cover. Blend until smooth. Add sugar and olive oil; blend for 1 minute. Pour into a mixing bowl; stir in vanilla extract.

Step 5

Place chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching until chocolate is melted. Stir melted chocolate into tofu mixture until combined. Stir in flour mixture until thoroughly combined, about 3 minutes. Fold in chocolate chips; transfer to the prepared pan.
