VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHILLI PEPPER MOUSSE
This vegan chocolate mousse is a beacon of hope for even the most self respecting 1000 calorie mousse devotee. Everything comes to the party to create the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. The tofu gives you some protein, and that lovely creamy texture that gets better when set. The cocoa adds that vital decadence that is a prerequisite in any great chocolate mousse, and the nut butter and vanilla give it an added dimension that stops it from being flat. Just a touch of agave to sweeten the deal, and some chilli for a final kick. I am not really a peanut butter fan for many reasons and do not use it very often. But I can't deny the flavor it brings to this. I prefer to use raw almond butter as a healthier option. Hazelnut butter works well too. It is all a matter or personal preference. You can also make this mousse without the chili. It still tastes wonderful, but I find that the heat lifts the heaviness of the cocoa and just gives the whole taste sensation an extra burst.

Steps:
- Throw all ingredients in your blender and puree until smooth and well combined.
- You might have to stop and scrape the sides of your blender to make sure it is all mixed through.
- Spoon mixture into martini glasses or serving bowls, and chill in the fridge for a couple of hours to yield the best results. The mixture will thicken slightly and the flavor of the chilli will strengthen. However, I have scoffed this after half an hour and been more than satisfied.
- Like I always say, people take the first bite with their eyes. I like to serve this in gorgeous clear shallow cocktail glasses to elevate this into my "simple but special" file.
- Serve with fresh raspberries, a dollop of soy cream, and some crushed raw almonds.
- The different textures and flavours make this a winner on every level.
- **Please note - For those of you with severe wheat, gluten, and dairy allergies - The Green and Black's cocoa (and a lot of others) is produced in a factory that also works with wheat, milk, hazelnuts, almonds, cashews, pistachios and brazil nuts. It is not in contact with peanuts.

Steps:
- Melt chocolate, butter and 2tbsp water in a double-boiler. (I actually did this in a metal bowl over lightly simmering pan of water). Make sure the water isn't boiling hard - chocolate melts remarkably quickly and you don't want to rush this process or you'll lose the shiny texture. While melting it, continuously stir the chocolate.
- Again, in a double-boiler, whisk the egg yolks and sugar. The eggs should get cooked just a tad. 2-3 minutes, maybe. Again, don't let the water get too hot. Make sure you don't scramble the eggs.
- Add the egg mixture to the chocolate mixture and allow to cool slightly below room temperature (You can achieve this by setting it on top of a bowl of ice for a few minutes).
- Whip the heavy cream so that you get soft peaks. Basically, you want the peaks to stay, but not too sharply (otherwise the texture isn't as "sexy").
- Add ground chipotle and salt to the chocolate/egg mixture and fold in the whipped cream.
- Fill into ramekins or similar container.
- Chill overnight or at least 3-4 hours.
VEGAN CHOCOLATE PUDDING WITH CINNAMON AND CHILE
Tofu is not solely the stuff of stir-fries. For example, I can almost guarantee you will be impressed by this dessert, a pudding that takes about as much time to make as hot chocolate. But there are a few qualifiers. Without chocolate, the flavor is unimpressive; it tastes like sweetened tofu. Add chocolate and a few Mexican spices, however, and you have a real winner. And certainly no one I've fed it to had any inkling that it was dairy free. The texture of the pudding, which must be made with silken tofu, is almost unbelievably good. The brand of chocolate you buy is of utmost importance. Without mentioning names, let me just suggest that you use the highest quality chocolate - semisweet or bittersweet, please - you can lay your hands on. After all, it's the flavor of the chocolate, not of the tofu, that will dominate.

Tips for Making the Perfect Vegan Chocolate Chili Pepper Mousse:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the mousse will be. Look for a chocolate with a high cacao content (70% or higher) and a rich, dark flavor.
- Don't overcook the chilis: The chilis should be cooked just until they are softened, but not mushy. Overcooked chilis will make the mousse bitter.
- Let the mousse chill for at least 4 hours: This will allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set properly.
- Serve the mousse with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include whipped coconut cream, fresh berries, and nuts.
Conclusion:
This vegan chocolate chili pepper mousse is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and a hint of spice, this mousse is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
