BERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, place berries, 2 tablespoons sugar, lemon juice, and zest. Cook for about 5 minutes, mixing occasionally until the liquid (which is the juice released from the fruit) thickens. At any point, you can add water if the sauce it too thick, or more sugar to make it sweeter.
• In a small cup, whisk together cornstarch and water until smooth, then add it to the saucepan. Let the mixture simmer for a few minutes longer until it reaches the desired consistency. Sauce will thicken further as it cools.

TOFU CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM WITH MIXED BERRY SAUCE AND WHIPPED COCONUT CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Place a metal loaf pan in the freezer to chill.
• Using a spoon, remove the solidified cream from the top of the coconut milk, leaving the coconut liquid behind in the bottom of the can. Place the cream in a large mixing bowl. Add 1/4 cup agave, then beat with a hand mixer until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. If the mixture is lumpy, add a little bit of the coconut liquid from the bottom of the can.
• Combine the tofu, cocoa powder, coconut oil, vanilla bean paste, salt and remaining 1/2 cup agave in a blender and blend until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the bowl with the whipped coconut and fold until combined. Transfer to the chilled loaf pan and place in the freezer until firm, 4 to 6 hours, or up to overnight.
• For the mixed berry sauce: Add the berries, agave and lemon juice to a medium saucepot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until it starts to thicken, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and add to a clean blender; blend, making sure to remove the center of the blender top, for about 30 seconds. Pour into a heatproof container and let cool slightly before serving, about 15 minutes.
• Scoop the ice cream into bowls and top with the berry sauce.
