Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips melted
  • 1 package 12.3-ounce reduced-fat extra-firm tofu
  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • Grated chocolate optional

Instructions

  1. Directions.
  2. Even our food staff was surprised when they tasted this sinfully delicious dessert. The best part–it contains two ingredients most women want more of: soy and chocolate!
  3. 1. Place chocolate and tofu in a food processor or blender, and process 2 minutes or until smooth.
  4. 2. Place salt and egg whites in a medium bowl, and beat with a mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until candy thermometer registers 238 degrees. Pour the hot sugar syrup in a thin stream over egg whites, beating at high speed. Gently stir one- fourth of meringue into the tofu mixture; gently fold in remaining meringue. Spoon 1/2 cup mousse into each of 8 (6-ounce) custard cups. Cover and chill for at least 4 hours. Garnish with whipped topping and grated chocolate, if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
