Mousse—a perfect ending to a delicious meal, yet so much more. Our mousse can stand alone as a decadent treat served anytime of day. It’s made from the creamiest soy in combination with dark chocolate and espresso for an added kick.
Ingredients
- 1 10.5 oz package soft plain tofu brought to room temperature
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon espresso instant coffee powder
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 5.5 oz dark chocolate bar, 70% cocoa
- Flaked salt optional
- Sweetened plain yogurt, shaved dark chocolate, raspberries for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Drain tofu and place in high-speed blender or food processor. Add maple syrup, chia seeds, coffee powder, and cinnamon. Blend until smooth. While mixture rests, melt chocolate in saucepan over medium-low heat or in microwave, stirring until smooth and fully melted. Cool slightly.
- In blender with creamy tofu, turn motor to low and gradually drizzle in melted chocolate until fully blended and creamy. Spoon or pipe into 6 – 4 oz ramekins. Top each with a pinch of flaked salt if you wish. Place ramekins on tray, cover securely, and slide into refrigerator to chill.
