Egg Free, Dairy Free, Nut Free Tofu Chocolate Mousse and Ice Cream

Tofu was on sale so I bought several packages. We made scrambled "eggs" and banana yogurt. I still had two packages left over so I decided to try and make some ice cream. Jazlyn wanted chocolate so I threw a few ingredients together and it turned out the thick consistency of a chocolate mousse. It was good and rich as the mousse, but it was also good after being frozen into ice cream. I'm not a big tofu fan, but this mousse was good. The amounts of the flavorings will vary depending how much of a chocolate flavor you desire.




Tofu Chocolate Mousse and Ice Cream

14 oz firm tofu
1/4 - 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
1/2 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
2 - 4 tbsp cocoa powder
2 - 4 tbsp sugar

Place all of the ingredients into the blender then process until smooth and thoroughly combined. Eat immediately as a chocolate mousse or freeze into ice cream.
*  If the ice cream is too hard to scoop, microwave it briefly to soften.
*  For an extra chocolately treat, top with safe chocolate chips and additional chocolate syrup.
