Serving Suggestions

Preparation

Melt the chocolate in a heatproof mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) for 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally until smooth and glossy.
In a food processor, blend the drained tofu, sugar, flavourings, and salt until completely smooth and creamy (about 2-3 minutes).
Once the chocolate has melted, whisk in the tofu mixture until well combined (about 2 minutes). If it hardens, gently heat it again.
Pour the mousse into individual serving dishes, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Serving

Top each mousse with fresh fruit, crumbled cookies, or cake cubes before serving.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to a month. This mousse can also be made a day in advance.
