Equipment

blender
4 serving glasses

Ingredients

chocolate pudding

16 oz silken tofu
¼ cup agave syrup
2-4 tablespoon cacao powder unsweetened***
3-4 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil melted
⅛ teaspoon salt

Vanilla Pudding*

8 oz silken tofu
2 tablespoon agave syrup
2 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil melted
½ teaspoon vanilla extract (or use a real vanilla bean pod - seeds)

Topping

5-8 oreo cookies crushed

Instructions

First make the vanilla pudding: add all the ingredients to a blender and blend from low to high until silky smooth. Tip: Make sure your tofu and agave is room temperature (about) so that it doesn't harden the coconut oil when blending. Pour the vanilla pudding into a side bowl, cover and place in the fridge.
Next, repeat the process with the chocolate pudding. (No need to rinse your blender!) Blend the chocolate pudding ingredients until smooth. Pour a small layer of the chocolate pudding into the bottom of each parfait serving glass, and pour the remaining chocolate pudding in a small bowl, cover and place all the containers in the fridge.
Allow your pudding to chill for at least an hour. Overnight is even better.
Add your Oreo cookies to a plastic baggie and using the handle end of a dull, heavy knife, whack the baggie to crush the cookies.
Assemble parfaits: Add a layer of crushed cookies over top the chilled bottom chocolate layer. Then spoon a layer of the chilled vanilla pudding over top. Then on top of that, add a final layer of chocolate pudding. Top with more crushed Oreos. Serve chilled. These will keep prepped in the fridge for up to two-three days. After that the Oreos get a bit too soggy.

Notes

*If desired, you can simply make a full batch of the vanilla pudding (16oz of tofu), but since there isn't as much vanilla pudding used in the parfaits, you may have leftover.

***Cacao powder: Start with two tablespoons, and see how dark it turns, add 1-2 more tablespoons to increase chocolate flavor, to taste.

Optional: Add some coconut whip on top for an extra special treat!
