Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1/2 cup Dutch cocoa
2 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
2 tbl baking powder
2 tbl baking soda
1 tsp sea salt
1 cup maple syrup
1 cup corn oil
6 oz tofu pressed dry
3/4 cup vanilla soy milk
1 tbl pure vanilla extract
1 tbl orange juice
1 cup non-dairy grain-sweetened chocolate chips
----------------- GLAZE ----------------
1 cup Dutch cocoa
1 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup corn oil
1/4 cup vanilla soymilk
2 tbl pure vanilla extract
----------------- STRAWBERRY COULIS ----------------
2 cup fresh strawberries hulled
(or 12-oz thawed frozen strawberries)
2 tbl maple syrup unless you have
freshly picked berries in season
2 tbl organic apple juice plus additional as
needed to thin sauce
2 tsp Grand Marnier
(or your favorite orange liqueur)
Instructions:
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, sift cocoa, pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt.

In a blender, combine maple syrup, corn oil, tofu, soy milk, vanilla extract and orange juice. Blend until the mixture achieves a smooth and even consistency. Add the wet ingredients to the sifted dry ones.

Spoon the batter into oiled and floured star-shaped individual cake pans, filling them no more than 3/4 of the way full. Place about 10 chocolate chips in the center of the batter in the mold to form a "gooey" center. Bake the cakes for 15 to 18 minutes.

Glaze: Sift the cocoa. Whisk it together with maple syrup, corn oil and vanilla. On a low flame, stirring constantly, heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Refrigerate until glaze cools.

Strawberry Coulis: In a food processor combine the strawberries, maple syrup, and apple juice. Process until mixture is smooth, being careful not to over-process the berries or they will discolor. Add more apple juice as necessary if sauce is too thick.

Strain mixture through a fine sieve into a nonreactive bowl. Stir in the liqueur. This coulis will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. (Makes 1 1/2 cups)

This recipe yields 8 individual cakes.
