Guilt-free chocolate? Is there such a thing?
In my effort to turn over a new leaf in regards to my sweet-tooth, I’ve been on the hunt for sweet treats that I can enjoy guilt free. Let’s just say, it hasn’t been easy. I’m not into using sketchy chemical no-calorie sweeteners, and if it doesn’t taste good, what’s the point?
I was pleasantly surprised when I tasted this rich mousse.
Guilt-free Chocolate Mousse Recipe
- 3 squares unsweetened bakers chocolate
- 1 – aprox. 250 gram package of organic silken tofu
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/4 c. honey
- 2 tbsp milk
- pinch of salt
- Melt chocolate in the microwave or on the stove top. Don’t burn it like I did while chasing the kid.
- Dump everything into the food processor and whiz until smooth and creamy.
- Pour into a bowl or individual servings. (espresso cups would be perfect) Chill.
- Devour.
This recipe is easily made vegan by using agave in place of honey and soy or almond milk in place of milk.
I also think it would be over the top with raspberry puree or a shot of espresso in place of the milk. In fact, I might try the espresso later today.
You can also pour this into a pie crust for a rich chocolate cream pie.
