- Yield: 4 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate mousse
- 320g / 11,3 oz silken tofu
- 160g / 5,6 oz dark chocolate, melted
- 120ml / 1/2 cup aquafaba (chickpea water)
Caramelised Nutty Oat Topping
- 40g / 1,4 oz roughly chopped roasted and salted nuts
- 2 tbsp oats
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or other liquid sweetener
Instructions
- In a food processor, mix the tofu completely smooth. While the food processor is still running, pour in the melted chocolate and mix until combined. Transfer to a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whip the aquafaba as hard and fluffy as possible. It may take a couple of minutes. Then transfer around half the whipped aquafaba to the chocolate mixture and carefully fold it together. Add the rest of the aquafaba and repeat the process.
- Divide the mousse between four serving bowls and let set in the fridge.
- Make the nutty oat topping by dry roasting the nuts and oats for a couple of minutes in a pan on medium to high heat. Be careful not to burn it!
- Once the oats have started to get a nice nutty flavour, take the pan off the heat and add the maple syrup. Stir until everything coated and continue to stir every once in a while until crispy. Divide the topping between the serving bowls, and voilà. Enjoy!
