Begin by melting the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Place them in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt them using a double boiler on the stove.
Drain any excess water from the silken tofu and pat it dry with a paper towel.
In a food processor or blender, combine the silken tofu, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Add the melted chocolate chips and milk to the food processor.
Blend all ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency, ensuring there are no lumps.
Taste the pudding and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more maple syrup if needed.
Transfer the pudding into serving cups or bowls.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the pudding to set and the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy a spoonful of this indulgent, high-protein, nut-free chocolate delight!
