Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 block (12-14 oz) Silken tofu
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Non-dairy milk (e.g., almond or soy milk)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Drain the silken tofu and gently pat it dry with a paper towel to remove excess liquid, being careful not to break it apart.
Transfer the tofu to a blender or food processor.
Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, non-dairy milk, and lemon juice to the blender with the tofu.
Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more powdered sugar, one teaspoon at a time, if desired.
Once the whipped cream reaches the desired consistency, transfer it to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up slightly.
Serve as a topping for cakes, pies, pancakes, or fresh fruit. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
