Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 220 g Silken Tofu
  • 100 g Dark Chocolate - good quality
  • 2-5 tbsp Agave Syrup - or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 3 tbsp Sultanas - or raisins
  • 2 tbsp Liqueur - I like to use Amaretto

Instructions

Liqueur Figs

  • Cover sultanas with Liqueur.
  • Leave to steep for an hour or so.
  • Carefully remove from the muffin tin and leave to cool on a cooling tray.

Mousse

  • To make the mousse, melt the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl placed over lightly simmering water.
  • Stir in the vanilla and the agave syrup. Use just two tablespoons syrup to start. You might need to add more later depending on how sweet your tooth is.
  • In a food processor and using the plastic blade, blend the tofu until it is smooth.
  • With the blade still running, pour in the chocolate mixture and process until completely amalgamated. Taste for sweetness. Add more if necessary.
  • At this point you can add any other flavourings. I used the soaking liqueur from the sultanas.

Assembly

  • Fold the soused sultanas into the mousse, keeping some aside for decoration.
  • Spoon the mousse into your dessert cups.
  • Sprinkle over the reserved sultanas, lightly dust with icing sugar.
