No plantains on hand? You can substitute unripe, green banana. Please note that the Prep time is hands-on time. The mousse benefits from some chilling time. See the note below.
Author: Dole
Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (12-ounce) package silken tofu
- 1 black plantain, peeled (about 6½ ounces; see above for banana option)
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 kiwi, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup finely chopped pineapple
- ⅓ cup raspberries
- 1 tablespoon chopped roasted cashews
- 1 tablespoon toasted coconut chips
Instructions
- Place the tofu, plantain, honey, and cocoa powder in your blender or food processor, and process on high for 1 minute, or until smooth. Cover and if you have time, refrigerate the mousse for several hours or overnight.
- Divide half of the chocolate mousse between 8 small glasses (champagne, small parfait, or drinking glasses). Top with the kiwi and pineapple, then the remaining chocolate mousse, followed by the raspberries, cashews, and coconut chips.
Notes
Refrigeration Note: The mousse will get thicker the longer it chills. If time allows, chill overnight for the best “mousse-like” texture.
Plantain Note: Their picture shows a yellow banana, which is a bit misleading. If using a plantain, you want it to be very ripe, which is typically when they are black on the outside. If substituting banana, you want it to be on the unripe, green side.
