Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare Your Tofu
. Begin by draining the silken tofu and gently patting it dry with paper towels. Removing excess water ensures the mousse achieves the perfect creamy texture.
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
. In a blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, brewed coffee (if using), and a pinch of salt. The coffee enhances the chocolate flavor, but it’s entirely optional.
Step 3: Blend to Perfection
. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the processor as needed to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Step 4: Adjust Sweetness
. Taste the mousse and adjust the sweetness by adding more powdered sugar if necessary. Remember that the cocoa brings a natural bitterness, so balance the sweetness to your preference.
Step 5: Portion and Chill
. Transfer the mousse into individual serving dishes or bowls. Cover the dishes with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours. This chilling process allows the mousse to set and develop its luscious texture.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
. Before serving, garnish the mousse with fresh berries, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a dollop of light whipped cream for an elegant finish.
Nutritional Highlights:
. This chocolate mousse is a healthier alternative to traditional recipes. Silken tofu provides plant-based protein, while cocoa powder delivers antioxidants. Adjust the powdered sugar to control the calorie count, and enjoy a dessert that aligns with your wellness goals.
SmartPoints Value:
. Keep track of your Weight Watchers SmartPoints by checking the specific values of the ingredients you use. For example, substituting powdered sugar with a zero-point sweetener can significantly reduce the point value.
Serving Suggestions:
. Pair this mousse with fresh strawberries or raspberries for a fruity contrast.
. Add a sprinkle of crushed nuts or granola for texture and crunch.
. For a touch of elegance, serve the mousse in wine glasses or dessert cups with a sprig of fresh mint.
