HIGH PROTEIN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
The texture of this chocolate mousse is so on point, honestly it could not be better! Light and airy, it is not only satisfying but healthy and high in protein since it is made of silken tofu. Taste wise, don’t expect a dense and heavily strong flavour of chocolate (which I love but makes me wanna stop eating after 3 bites). The tofu brings a subtle flavour of soy bean that is surprisingly quite nice in my opinion and well balanced with chocolate flavour.

Instructions
- Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave with 30 seconds intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is melted. Set aside to cool at room temperature.
- Put the silken tofu in a blender, add the melted chocolate, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, sweetener, and blend until smooth and well combined. (Make sure melted chocolate has cooled down, or else it will solidify at the contact of the cold tofu)
- Scoop the mixture into 2 ramekins and refrigerate for 30 minutes at least (in the video, I put everything in a glass but it counted for 2 servings) .
- Before serving garnish with fresh fruits such as pomegranate but raspberries or strawberries would go very well too. Hope you enjoy!
Notes
Add some unsweetened cocoa powder if you would like a stronger chocolate taste.
