Instructions
- Into a small bowl add your pitted Medjool dates and some boiling water. Let them soak for 3 minutes to soften.
- Melt your dark chocolate chips in the microwave. Add them to a small heat-safe bowl and then microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
- In a food processor, combine the drained silken tofu, dates, melted chocolate, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Add the almond butter or peanut butter if using.
- Blend everything until completely smooth. This may take a couple of minutes to achieve a creamy texture. Scrape down the sides as needed.
- Pour the mousse into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set. The mousse will thicken as it chills.
- Optional: Serve with a dollop of dairy-free whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings or cocoa powder on top for garnish.
