Chocolate Tofu Mousse

I truly believe that eating healthy doesn't mean having to sacrifice all the flavor in your diet, especially snacks that are sweet and tasty.  This quickly became one of the favorites in a Clean Eating Challenge Group I was running, and I've even had people tell me they doubled the batch and made pies with it.  Again, this has macronutrient counts for those people who are following the 21-Day Fix containers, or using macro counts as a way to control portions and caloric intake. When I put this on a meal plan, I had miscalculated the proper measurement for the peanut butter, so I adjusted it here for the appropriate count, and it's still just as tasty as it was with the over measured peanut butter in the original recipe. If you're looking for something to satiate that sweet tooth, or fill the void of your Hershey's Kisses, this one is for you!

CHOCOLATE TOFU MOUSSE

1 Protein, 2 Nut Butter

(Makes 4 Servings)

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 (16 oz.) pkg. Silken Tofu
• 2 tbsp. Almond Milk, more for desired texture
• 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
• 1/8 c.+ 2 tsp. Natural Peanut Butter
• 4 tbsp. Cocoa Powder
• 3 Stevia Packets

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.  Add additional almond milk one teaspoon at a time if it is too thick. Taste the final product to make sure it is sweet enough for your liking, and add additional Stevia if you prefer it sweeter. Divide into four ramekins or cups and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes. Enjoy by itself, or topped with fresh fruit. 

Again, this is an awesome way to get some protein in while also satisfying that need for sweets and chocolate, not to mention that peanut butter is so good for you in so many ways.  I hope you enjoy this as much as my challengers do, and feel free to share it with other 21-Day Fixers and health foodies alike!
