Ingredients
Mousse
- 12 ounces soft silken tofu 340 g after pouring away loose liquid; choose a ready-to-eat product
- 7 ounces dark chocolate, 60–69% cacao 200 g, finely chopped
- 1 small pinch table salt 0.4 g
Equipment
- 1 microwave-safe bowl
- 1 food processor or blender
- 1 Spatula
- 6 small dessert cups
Instructions
Method
- Check that the tofu is suitable for ready-to-eat use; if its package requires cooking, follow that instruction and cool safely before proceeding. Pour away loose liquid without pressing the tofu.
- Melt the chopped chocolate in a dry microwave-safe bowl in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until the final small pieces melt with stirring. Allow briefly to cool while remaining fluid.
- Blend the tofu until uniform. Add the melted chocolate and salt, then blend just until smooth, stopping to scrape down the bowl so no pale tofu streaks remain.
- Divide among six small cups, cover and refrigerate at 40°F (4°C) or below for at least 2 hours, until set. Serve cold, with optional toppings added only at serving time.

Notes
Yield: six small portions, about 90 g each before any toppings. Contains soy; check chocolate for milk and other allergens. Use within three days, or sooner if the tofu package specifies a shorter opened-storage period. Nutrition uses USDA SR Legacy MORI-NU soft silken tofu (340 g), generic 60–69% dark chocolate (200 g) and table salt (0.4 g), divided by six; it is an estimate and current brand labels may differ, including calcium, sugar and trace cholesterol in the generic chocolate record. Vitamin C is omitted because complete ingredient data are unavailable. Optional toppings are not included.
