No-Cook Chocolate Silk Tarts

Sure, it sounds strange, but tofu makes these tarts creamy as well as healthful.

You'd never know tofu is in these creamy tarts. Be sure to use the custard-like silken tofu found vacuum-packed in boxes. To melt chocolate, coarsely chop, then microwave on medium for 30 seconds. Repeat until chocolate is melted.
