Ingredients

  • 100 g Sugar, white

  • 100 ml Water

  • 450 g Tofu, hard

  • 220 g chocolate, dark

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla, extract, imitation

Steps

  1. Place a small pot with sugar and water on the stove. Heat the contents slowly over low heat, stirring until all the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly and becomes a clear sugar syrup. Remove the pot from the heat and let the syrup cool slightly. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.

  2. Cut the tofu into smaller pieces and place them in a food processor or blender. Add the sugar syrup, melted chocolate, and vanilla extract, and blend until you achieve a completely smooth chocolate mixture.

  3. Fill small ceramic bowls with the chocolate mixture and place them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the mousse to cool and set completely. You can garnish the dessert with chocolate shavings or grated chocolate before serving.
