Cocoa Nib Mousse
Instructions
- Combine soy milk and cocoa nibs in a small saucepan; bring to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 25 minutes. Strain into a bowl, pressing nibs with the back of a spoon to extract liquid. Discard nibs and set liquid aside.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine honey, cornstarch, and salt, mixing to form a smooth paste. Slowly stir in cocoa nib infusion, mixing until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to thicken, 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat and stir in puréed tofu. Cook for 2 minutes longer over medium-low heat, until thick and creamy.
- Transfer to four 1/2-cup ramekins. Refrigerate for several hours. Just before serving, top each mousse with a dollop of whipped topping, if desired, and garnish with berries and cocoa nibs.
