Calories: 136kcal
Ingredients
- 1 14 oz block silken tofu drained
- ¼ cup chocolate protein powder *
- ¼ cup maple syrup or other sweetener of choice
- 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Give it a taste and add more sweetener or cocoa powder, if needed. Transfer into glass or ramekins.
- Let it set in the freezer for 10 minutes, or in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
*Protein powder - I am using chocolate flavored pea protein powder here, but any other vegan protein powder like hemp, chia and rice protein will work too. If you are using vanilla or unflavored ones, you might want to increase the amount of cocoa powder used to ¼ cup.
Omitting protein powder - increase cocoa powder used to ¼ cup. Yur mousse might be slightly thinner, but still tasty regardless!
Storing - Chocolate protein mousse will store well in the fridge for 3-4 days. You might need to add some plant milk to thin and give it a good stir before serving as it tends to thicken up after sitting in the fridge for a few days. This recipe does not freeze well.
