Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
Melt the chocolate gently by setting the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir occasionally until smooth. Alternatively, you may melt the chocolate in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between to prevent burning.
Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly for a few minutes, but not so much that it begins to harden.
In a blender or food processor, add the silken tofu, melted chocolate, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Blend the mixture on high speed until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness if desired by adding a little more maple syrup, blending briefly to incorporate.
Divide the mousse evenly into individual serving glasses or ramekins.
Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to allow the mousse to set and chill properly.
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped coconut cream, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious, dairy-free tofu chocolate mousse!
