If you have time make this icing a day in advance and refrigerate it It will make the icing  
thicker and therefore easier to spread on a cake  

(
(


 grams chocolate bittersweet dairyfree melted  
/ cup brown rice syrup  
/ cup maple syrup  
 tablespoon sucanat sugar  
(or granulated sugar)  
 pinch sea salt  
about  / cup when cut)  
or  / cup dairyfree chocolate chips)  
  / ounces tofu lowfat silken (extrafirm)  
teaspoon vanilla extract  
Blend all ingredients with a small electric hand blender (easier clean up) or a food processor until smooth  
Refrigerate icing to firm it up and make it easier to spread on a cake  
Spread on cooled cake and if necessary refrigerate briefly to set the icing to the cake  
Should have enough icing to cover a doublelayeredinch round cake  
VARIATIONS:  

As the sweetener any combination of unrefined liquid sweeteners (maple syrup brown rice syrup barley malt  
syrup agave syrup etc) can be used and in varying amounts depending on your tastes (see "Dessert Notes" for  
more information about sweeteners)  

For a lower fat icing use  / cup cocoa powder in place of  grams of dairyfree bittersweet chocolate  
Although this icing will not be nearly as rich and smooth this will yield an icing which contains only   calories  
from fat (about  grams of fat per serving)  

"Carob Icing"  on a carob cake use chunks of dairyfree carob bars or chips in place of chocolate (or carob  
powder in place of cocoa powder if making the low fat variation listed above)
