Nearly Vegan Mousse

For the chocolate mousse, in a small bowl, combine chocolate chips, cocoa and water. Microwave 30 seconds. Stir and then microwave until fully melted, stirring every 10 seconds until smooth. Set aside.

In a blender or food processor, process the tofu until completely smooth. Add the melted chocolate, vanilla, maple syrup, salt and almond extract (if using, not recommended if combining with peanut butter mousse). Blend until completely incorporated and smooth. Chill at least 30 minutes.

For the peanut butter mousse, in a blender or food processor, blend the tofu until completely smooth. Add the peanut butter, vanilla, salt and honey and continue blending until smooth and fully incorporated. Chill at least 30 minutes and serve.

To make completely vegan, use dairy-free chocolate chips and replace the honey with a vegan sweetener, such as maple syrup.
