3 steps

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted {Check for Gluten}
  • 1 (12.3-ounce) package reduced-fat extra-firm tofu
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed (optional)
  • Grated chocolate (optional) {Check for Gluten}

Directions

  1. 1
    Place chocolate chips and tofu in a food processor or blender, and process 2 minutes or until smooth.
  2. 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 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until candy thermometer registers 238°. Pour the hot sugar syrup in a thin stream over egg white mixture, 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 at least 4 hours. Garnish with whipped topping and grated chocolate, if desired.
  3. 3
    Tofu is the key to making this dessert light and creamy, but you won't be able to taste it. Be sure to use plain tofu for the best results.
