I've been wanting to try to bake with legumes like this; those flourless chocolate cakes always look delicious. I've been making my own vegan whipped cream for a while. I just stick a can of coconut milk in the freezer for a couple of hours. All the cream rises to the top, so I take off the lid and scoop that out, leaving the liquid behind. Then I whip that with a little bit of powdered sugar and/or corn starch and a few drops of vanilla. It makes a whipped cream almost identical to the dairy variety, with minimal sugar.

I forgot the versatility of this bean cake. I've tried the chocolate version twice and seeing your pictures makes me want to try it with my tofu "cream". That looks delicious!
