Thanks so much to my friend Terra for sharing her delicious tofu chocolate mousse recipe with me so that I can share it with you!

Fair warning, it’s super rich and chocolatey-not for the faint of heart. But it IS loaded with heart-healthy and brain-healthy ingredients and will satisfy all your chocolate cravings. I promise!

Ingredients to make Tofu Chocolate Mousse

The ingredient list for this tofu chocolate mousse is super simple. All you need are

  • Tofu. Use extra firm. (This works if you’re following a low FODMAP diet). Also, I try to use organic soy products to avoid GMOs, but use whichever you prefer.
  • Dark chocolate. I used unsweetened dark chocolate, but if you like your chocolate mousse a little sweeter, opt for bittersweet.
  • Sweetener. Cane sugar works well here. If you make this with a non-nutritive sweetener like allulose, monk fruit, or erythritol, please let me know how it turns out!
  • Milk. I use soy milk to thin the chocolate mousse out, otherwise it’s too thick for the blender. Try almond milk for a low FODMAP option.
  • Cinnamon. Chocolate and cinnamon are a match made in heaven. Enough said!
  • Egg white. This is an optional addition if you don’t want a vegan version, and want a more traditional chocolate mousse consistency. Or, you might try aqua faba in place of the whipped egg white to keep it vegan.

Servings: 3

Ingredients

  • 5 ounces dark chocolate, unsweetened or bittersweet
  • 8 ounces tofu, extra firm
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons cane sugar
  • 6 tablespoons soy milk, or other milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 egg white, optional-see recipe notes.

Instructions

  • Melt chocolate and sugar together in a double boiler. If you don’t have a double boiler, melt the chocolate in the microwave, then stir in the sugar.
  • Puree chocolate, sugar and tofu in blender. Add milk as needed to, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve your desired consistency.
  • Add cinnamon and blend until well combined. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve (vegan version). Or, see instructions below for non-vegan version.

Optional

  • For a more traditional chocolate mousse consistency, beat egg whites to a semi-stiff peak in a separate bowl.  Fold egg white into chocolate mousse mixture, being careful not to over mix. Serve or refrigerate until ready to eat.
