Serves 6

Simple, rich, and composed, this dessert delivers depth and texture without heaviness. Silken tofu creates a smooth, creamy base, while dark chocolate brings richness and balance.

It’s a dessert that satisfies fully, without the sharp peaks and crashes that often follow something sweet.

Ingredients

• 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa minimum), melted

• 300g silken tofu, drained

• 2 tablespoons maple syrup

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• A pinch of sea salt

• Optional: raspberries or cacao nibs, to serve

Method

Blend the silken tofu until completely smooth and creamy.

Add the melted dark chocolate, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt, then blend again until silky.

Spoon the mousse into small glasses or ramekins and chill for at least one hour to set.

Serve topped with fresh raspberries or a light sprinkle of cacao nibs.

Why It Works

This dairy-free mousse is high in protein and balanced in fats, helping to support steady energy and mood while still delivering a satisfying dessert. Dark chocolate provides richness and depth, while the tofu base keeps the texture light and composed. It is proof that dessert can feel complete without excess.
