Healthy Chocolate Mousse


What if I told you this creamy dessert in front of you is actually healthy chocolate mousse:

If you're looking for a healthy dessert that does not taste healthy in the slightest, this is THE recipe you need to try. I've even served this rich, creamy chocolate mousse to my meat-a-holic boyfriend, and he loved it so much he polished off the entire recipe. Seriously, it is a must-try! Recipe here: https://lett-trim.today/2012/02/06/chocolate-chocolate-chocolate-mousse/

This velvety chocolate mousse is so rich and so thick that anyone who tries it will swear it must be full of heavy cream and calories.

But surprisingly, it’s not at all!

See those two chocolate-filled glasses?

I ate them both.

Joey doesn’t share food.

Katie doesn’t share chocolate.

What food do you think is too good to share? Brownies are too good to share! And chocolate fudge pie! I also like to have my own coconut butter so I can eat it straight from the jar. And now this rich chocolate mousse.

Way too good to share…

Healthy Chocolate Mousse

(Serves 2-4)

  • 6 oz Mori-Nu silken-firm tofu (Click for a Soy-Free Chocolate Mousse Recipe)
  • 1/2 tsp cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips, or 1 and 1/4 chocolate bars in the flavor of your choice (3-oz bars)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1/16 tsp salt
  • pinch uncut stevia OR 2 tbsp sugar or sweetener of choice

Melt the chocolate, either on the stove or in the microwave. Then throw everything into a Magic Bullet or food processor and blend until super-smooth. (I used a Magic Bullet. If your food processor is really big, or if you’re using a blender, it might be a good idea to double the recipe in order for the contents to blend smoothly.)

    I’m pretty sure that eating 3/4 cup of chocolate chips or 1 1/4 candy bars for two servings can really be considered healthy.

  2. Jenn says:

    Anyone who references “Joey doesn’t share food” obviously knows what they’re talking about : ) And…the mousse looks delicious. I don’t share my chocolate either.

  3. Eco Chic says:

    I just made this tonight!! It was super simple and easy! I have more tofu and I plan on making another batch tomorrow! It pleased two tofu-squeamish people who both wanted seconds. Thank you so much for sharing all of these delicious recipes!

    Hi Katie, I’ve recently come across your page and love it!
    I’m just wondering in this recipe, how much is “1 T milk”….I feel silly asking but I just don’t know.
    Thank-you!

      tablespoon 🙂

    I was going to make this today but realize i bought Firm Tofu from Trader Joe’s not silken. Can I still make this?

    1. Anonymous says:

      I made it with firm, as it was already in my fridge. It turned out fine for me 🙂

  6. Sarah says:

    This made chocolate soup! I followed the directions to the T.

  7. Ariel says:

    This was AMAZING! I followed every detail, only adding a tiny bit of agave (perhaps 1 t), and it was delicious. I have a gluten and casein intolerance, and since finding your website I have been able to try a lot of yummy things that have heretofore been out of reach for me. It is hard to find inexpensive specialty foods in stores, and there aren’t too many good recipes floating around on the interwebs. Thank you so much for making delicious recipes I am able to enjoy!

  8. Brittany says:

    I made this recipe last night and it’s phenomenal! Thank you Katie!!!! 🙂

  9. Amber says:

    I just made this and it is AMAZING! You can’t taste the tofu. It tastes just as rich and smooth as any mousse I’ve had before. I will definitely be making this again!!!

    Just made this yesterday- WOW! Kids love it, hubby loves it, I’m having a hard time putting it away in the fridge! Gets even thicker overnight. Great to pour in a pie crust, too. It’s a keeper!
