I have a recipe for chocolate mousse that's fantastic! No milk substitute
needed. I got it from "Cooking Light" magazine.
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
1 (12.3 ounce) package reduced-fat extra firm tofu
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
Place melted chocolate and tofu in a food processor or blender, and process
2
minutes or until smooth. [I've made it in both a food processor and a
blender.
I got significantly better results with the food processor.]
Place salt and egg whites in a medium bowl, and beat with a mixer at high
speed
until stiff peaks form.
Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, without
stirring, until candy thermometer registers 238 degrees.
[I've changed the order and I start the sugar and water boiling and then
whip
the egg whites. There's plenty of time, and it means the egg whites don't
sit
as long waiting for the syrup.]
Pour the hot sugar syrup in a thin stream over egg whites, beating at high
speed.
Gently fold one-fourth of meringue into the tofu mixture. Fold in the
remaining meringue.
Spoon 1/2 cup mousse into each of 8 (6 ounce) custard cups. Cover and chill
for at least 4 hours.
Yield: 8 servings
