🍫 3 Ingredients Chocolate Mousse, High Protein & Silky Smooth!

Hi friends!
I’ve got something super exciting to share with you today my 3 Ingredients Chocolate Mousse that’s healthy, packed with protein (13g per serving!), and so creamy you won’t believe it’s made with tofu. Yes, tofu! Don’t worry it doesn’t taste like tofu at all. It just helps make everything extra smooth and light.

This dessert is my go-to when I want something chocolatey and cozy, but still want to keep things on the healthier side. Let’s get into the yumminess!

👩‍🍳 Method (In Detail)

Melt the Chocolate

First things first, you’ll need to melt your dark chocolate. I usually go for the microwave method just break the chocolate into small pieces, pop it in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat it in short bursts (around 20–30 seconds), stirring in between until it’s completely smooth. You can also use a double boiler if you prefer. Just be sure to stir often and melt it gently so it doesn’t burn. Burnt chocolate can taste bitter and ruin the smooth texture we’re going for!

Add Ingredients to the Blender

Next, get your food processor or blender ready. Add in all three ingredients: the silken tofu, the melted chocolate, and the cacao powder. It might feel a little strange using tofu in a dessert, but trust me it works wonders for the texture and adds a healthy dose of plant-based protein without any strong flavor.

Blend Until Silky Smooth

Now it’s time to blend! Blend the mixture on high until everything is fully combined and completely smooth. This step is super important there should be no lumps or chunks. You want the mousse to look just like creamy chocolate pudding. If you need to, stop the blender and scrape down the sides a couple of times to make sure everything is mixed evenly.

Pour Into Containers

Once your mousse is blended and velvety, pour it into your small serving pots, jars, or ramekins. I like using a spatula to help get every last bit out of the blender because you don’t want to waste any of that deliciousness!

Chill Overnight

Finally, pop the containers into the fridge and let them chill overnight. This step lets the mousse set and thicken to the perfect texture. It may be tempting to dig in right away, but chilling is key to getting that rich, mousse-like consistency. The next day, you’ll be greeted with a silky, chocolatey treat that’s totally worth the wait!

🧰 Necessary Tools

• Food processor or blender
• Small pot or ramekins
• Spoon or spatula
• Fridge space for chilling

🍓 Serving Suggestions

• Top it with fresh berries like strawberries or raspberries
• Add a dollop of whipped cream or coconut cream
• Sprinkle with chopped nuts or cacao nibs
• Serve with a crunchy biscotti on the side for a fancy touch!

🎉 Fun Fact

Silken tofu is made from soybeans and has a super soft texture. It’s often used in smoothies and desserts because it blends so well. Plus, it’s full of plant-based protein so good for your body and your taste buds!

🧁 Conclusion

This 3 Ingredients Chocolate Mousse is one of my favorite easy treats. It’s healthy, protein-packed, and feels like a rich dessert but it’s secretly good for you! Whether you’re making it for yourself, your family, or friends, it’s always a hit. Give it a try, and let me know how you serve yours!

Until next time, happy blending and happy snacking! 🍫✨
