Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (vegan, at least 70% cocoa)
- 300 grams Silken tofu
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
- 100 grams Fresh berries (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it using a double boiler or in the microwave. If using the microwave, heat in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, to avoid burning.
Drain any excess liquid from the silken tofu and add it to a high-speed blender or food processor.
Pour the melted chocolate into the blender with the tofu, followed by the maple syrup and vanilla extract.
Blend everything on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender if needed to ensure even mixing.
Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness by adding a little more maple syrup, if desired.
Divide the mousse evenly into 4 serving glasses or ramekins, smoothing the tops with the back of a spoon.
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
When ready to serve, garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder and fresh berries, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy your vegan chocolate mousse!
