Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Place the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring vigorously in between, until completely smooth and melted.
Drain the silken tofu and add it to a blender or food processor. Blend on high for 45 seconds until the texture is creamy and absolutely no lumps remain.
Pour the melted chocolate and the liquid stevia into the blender with the pureed tofu.
Pulse or blend again until the mixture is fully combined and uniform in color.
Divide the mousse evenly between six small dessert cups or ramekins.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the pudding to set firmly and the flavors to meld.

Notes

Personal Twist

A pinch of salt: Adding just a tiny pinch of sea salt to the blender really pops the chocolate flavor without adding distinct saltiness.
Espresso kick: Dissolve a teaspoon of instant coffee into the melting chocolate for a mocha variation that feels deeper and richer.
Berry garnish: Serve with a single fresh raspberry or sliced strawberry on top to add freshness and a pop of color without spiking the sugar content.
Allergy alert: This recipe contains soy. Ensure your chocolate is certified dairy-free and gluten-free if needed for specific dietary requirements.
Preparation Tip: Use room temperature tofu if possible; if the tofu is ice-cold from the fridge, it can cause the warm chocolate to seize up and become grainy during blending.
