The ingredients needed to make Soft Chocolate Cookies Made with Tofu:
- Get 100 grams ☆Whole grain flour (or cake flour)

- Take 50 grams Chocolate chips (or chopped bar)
Steps to make Soft Chocolate Cookies Made with Tofu:
- The cocoa powder tends to clump, so sift if necessary. Whisk together the ☆ ingredients in a bowl. Preheat the oven to 390F/200C.
- In a separate bowl, combine the tofu and Hacho miso and stir until evenly combined.
- Add the tofu and miso mixture to the bowl from Step 1, then stir in the chocolate chips.
- Once it's come together, place on a baking sheet and use your hands to flatten to 1cm thick. It helps to lightly wet your hands.

- For Valentine's Day: When spreading out the dough, roll it 5mm thick (bake for 15min), then cut into cute little heart shapes with a cookie cutter. I made nine 7cm cookies.
- Wrapped individually makes them even cuter.
- Variation: Rather than cocoa, I added 50g more of the cake flour and baked it without Hacho miso. I actually prefer this version.
