The holidays and healthy desserts do not often go mitten in mitten. But here’s a festive postprandial pudding or mousse that is sure to take the cake as one of most nutritious you’ve ever served – and no need to tell the kids until they’ve tried it. You’ll be using tofu instead of heavy cream and egg yolks, but the creamy texture and dominant flavors (maple, almond) will make this a delightful confection.
