VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHILLI PEPPER MOUSSE

This vegan chocolate mousse is a beacon of hope for even the most self respecting 1000 calorie mousse devotee. Everything comes to the party to create the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. The tofu gives you some protein, and that lovely creamy texture that gets better when set. The cocoa adds that vital decadence that is a prerequisite in any great chocolate mousse, and the nut butter and vanilla give it an added dimension that stops it from being flat. Just a touch of agave to sweeten the deal, and some chilli for a final kick. I am not really a peanut butter fan for many reasons and do not use it very often. But I can't deny the flavor it brings to this. I prefer to use raw almond butter as a healthier option. Hazelnut butter works well too. It is all a matter or personal preference. You can also make this mousse without the chili. It still tastes wonderful, but I find that the heat lifts the heaviness of the cocoa and just gives the whole taste sensation an extra burst.

Time 5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces of organic firm silken tofu (1 packet/300gm)
1/3 cup green and black's organic fairtrade cocoa
1/3-1/2 cup agave nectar, depending on your taste
2 teaspoons natural vanilla extract
2 tablespoons raw peanut butter or 2 tablespoons raw almond butter
1/4 teaspoon chili pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Throw all ingredients in your blender and puree until smooth and well combined.
  • You might have to stop and scrape the sides of your blender to make sure it is all mixed through.
  • Spoon mixture into martini glasses or serving bowls, and chill in the fridge for a couple of hours to yield the best results. The mixture will thicken slightly and the flavor of the chilli will strengthen. However, I have scoffed this after half an hour and been more than satisfied.
  • Like I always say, people take the first bite with their eyes. I like to serve this in gorgeous clear shallow cocktail glasses to elevate this into my "simple but special" file.
  • Serve with fresh raspberries, a dollop of soy cream, and some crushed raw almonds.
  • The different textures and flavours make this a winner on every level.
  • **Please note - For those of you with severe wheat, gluten, and dairy allergies - The Green and Black's cocoa (and a lot of others) is produced in a factory that also works with wheat, milk, hazelnuts, almonds, cashews, pistachios and brazil nuts. It is not in contact with peanuts.

VEGAN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Smooth and creamy chocolate mousse made vegan by using silken tofu as the base. I like to think that since the tofu has protein it makes this even a bit healthy! For the ingredients I recommend almond or soy milk. Skip some of the others like rice milk which is too watery. If you're doing this totally vegan, look for vegan chocolate chips. Regular semi-sweet chocolate chips typically contain some milk. Most importantly, the best tofu is Mori-Nu silken tofu in firm or extra-firm (also comes in Lite). This is the shelf stable silken tofu found with the Asian foods. If you can't find this there is sometimes a refrigerated silken tofu with all the other kinds of tofu but the package is bigger so the other ingredients need to be adjusted accordingly.

Time 10m

Yield 4-5 , 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (12 1/3 ounce) package silken tofu (Mori-Nu Firm or Extra-Firm)
3/4 cup almond milk
1 cup chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place almond milk and chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat about 1 minute depending on your microwave. Stir together until chocolate chips are dissolving in milk, you should now have a rich chocolate milk. If necessary, heat a bit a longer. Let the mixutre cool for a few minutes.
  • Add chocolate mixture, tofu, and vanilla to a food processor or blender and process until pureed. This is important: taste the mixture to make sure you don't a have a tofu taste since all brands are different. If it's not chocolaty enough you can melt some more chocolate chips and add it but don't add any more milk or it won't set properly.
  • Pour into 4-5 ramekins or small dishes. It will set better this way than if it's in one big bowl. Chill 2-3 hours and it's ready to eat!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate will greatly impact the taste of the mousse. Use a chocolate that is at least 70% cocoa solids and has a rich, deep flavor.
  • Temper the chocolate: Tempering the chocolate will help to stabilize it and give it a smooth, velvety texture. To temper chocolate, melt it slowly and then cool it down quickly, stirring constantly.
  • Use fresh chili peppers: Fresh chili peppers will provide the best flavor. If you can't find fresh chili peppers, you can use dried chili peppers, but be sure to soak them in warm water for 30 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the mousse: Overmixing the mousse will make it dense and grainy. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Chill the mousse before serving: Chilling the mousse will help it to set and will also allow the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Vegan chocolate chili pepper mousse is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is rich, creamy, and has a hint of spice that will tantalize your taste buds. This mousse is also relatively easy to make, so it is a great option for beginner bakers. If you are looking for a vegan dessert that is sure to impress, give this mousse a try.
