Tofu Chocolate Mousse Recipe
If you’ve never had silken Tofu Chocolate Mousse before, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by this recipe! It’s luscious, rich, silky smooth, creamy, and ridiculously simple to make. You’d never guess it’s vegan, gluten-free, egg-free, or dairy-free. Ideal for a little after-dinner dessert or a healthy snack. One of our most favorite vegan chocolate mousse until now was definitely the Cashew Chocolate Mousse, but after making this one, we can call it tie :).
We’ve never used tofu in sweets before, so this is a first for us, and we’re obsessed. You must give it a go! Stay tuned, since we will undoubtedly make more sweets with it.
Because this dessert is rich in protein, we recommend dividing it into 3-4 servings. Our Chocolate Mousse is really satisfying, and with only four ingredients, the recipe is super simple to prepare. Even if you are not into vegan recipes, this one is a keeper!
