1. Begin by draining any excess liquid from the silken tofu. Pat it dry gently using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
2. Peel the ripe banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending.
3. In a blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, banana, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
4. Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes silky and smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
5. Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness by adding a little more maple syrup if desired.
6. Divide the mousse evenly among 4 small dessert glasses or bowls.
7. Cover the glasses or bowls with plastic wrap and chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, allowing it to firm up slightly and intensify in flavor.
8. Before serving, optionally garnish each serving with grated dark chocolate and a fresh mint leaf for an elegant touch.
9. Serve chilled and enjoy!
