Steps:
- With a food processor or blender, mix cake mix and tofu together.
- Once mixed, add 1/4 cup water and blend again until smooth.
- Pour into baking dish and cook according to the directions on the cake mix box, depending what type of dish you use. Sometimes I make cupcakes, sometimes I make a cake and cut it into squares.
- DO NOT add the oil/egg/whatever else the cake mix box says you need - the tofu takes the place of all of these!

Chocolate Sauce Design: Put a mixture of 2 T. pure maple syrup and 2 T unsweetened cocoa powder into a squeeze bottle or an improvised pastry bag, which can be made by forcing the sauce into a bottom corner of a sturdy plastic storage bag and pricking a small hole through which it can flow. Squeeze a series of straight lines across the cake, then rake the tines of a fork across the top in the opposite direction to create a pattern.
Tips:
- Use silken tofu for a smooth and creamy texture.
- Drain the tofu well to remove excess moisture.
- Use a high-quality chocolate for a rich and decadent flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch cake pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.
- This cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
