Drain excess water from the silken tofu and add it to a blender.
Pour the coconut milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract into the blender with the tofu.
Blend the mixture until completely smooth and set aside.
In a small saucepan, mix the agar-agar powder with the water and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the agar-agar.
Once the agar-agar is completely dissolved, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for a minute.
Pour the agar-agar mixture into the blended tofu mixture, and blend again until totally combined to ensure a uniform texture.
Distribute the pudding mixture evenly into four small bowls or dessert cups.
Chill the pudding in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Serve chilled, optionally garnished with fresh fruit or berries for added freshness and flavor.
