Categories     dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips
1 (12-ounce) package silken firm tofu
Splash vanilla extract
2 egg whites*
Prepared chocolate cookie crust (recommended: Oreo) or graham cracker crust
Whipped cream or raspberry sauce, for serving.

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate over low heat, stirring often. Blend tofu in a food processor. Add the vanilla and melted chocolate and blend again, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides of a bowl with a rubber spatula.
  • Beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Place the tofu chocolate mixture into a bowl and slowly fold in the egg whites with a rubber spatula. Scoop the filling into the pie crust and refrigerate for several hours before serving.
  • Serve with a bit of whipped cream or raspberry sauce (or simply thin raspberry jam with a bit of water and lemon juice). Don't say tofu, say terrific.
  • *RAW EGG WARNING
  • Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.

Categories     Pie

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (See Note 1)
2 (10 1/2 ounce) packages silken tofu or 2 (10 1/2 ounce) packages silken firm tofu (See Note 2)
3 tablespoons maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener of your choice; can use less, to taste)

Steps:

  • Note 1: vegans: use barley-malt-sweetened nondairy chocolate chips or use a really good vegan chocolate bar (like Rapunzel Organic Bittersweet) instead of some or all of the chips.
  • Note 2: I use the Mori Nu brand of tofu for this (since it's from their box), but you can use any brand, just make sure it is the"silken" type and not regular.
  • Melt choc chips in a double boiler over low heat or in microwave (if you know what you're doing).
  • Put tofu, sweetener, and melted chocolate into a blender and process until very smooth.
  • Pour into a serving bowl or bowls and refrigerate, covered, for at least a couple of hours.
  • Cover this well, because it will pick up EVERY odor in your refrigerator otherwise.

Tips:

  • Make sure the tofu is extra firm and well-drained. This will help to ensure a smooth and creamy mousse.
  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • Don't overbeat the mousse. Overbeating can cause it to become grainy.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help it to set and develop its full flavor.
  • Garnish the mousse with fresh berries, grated chocolate, or whipped cream before serving.

Conclusion:

This chocolate tofu mousse pie is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a vegan or simply looking for a healthier alternative to traditional mousse pies, this recipe is sure to please.
