Directions
MAKE THE MOUSSE
- Break the chocolate into small chunks and put them in a bowl set over (but not in) a small pot of barely simmering water.
- Stir gently until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove the bowl from the steam bath.
- Toss the tofu into your food processor. Add the sugar, vanilla, Lavender Sea Salt, Grand Marnier and the chocolate, scraping the bowl to get all the mixture out.
- Purée until smooth and delicious. Spoon into individual serving dishes and chill while you make the coconut whipped cream.
MAKE THE COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM
- Open the can of coconut milk, taking care not to shake it. Scoop coconut cream solids into a cold mixing bowl. Reserve remaining liquid for another use.
- Beat the coconut cream using an electric mixer with chilled beaters on medium speed; turn to high speed. Beat until stiff peaks form, 7 to 8 minutes. Add sugar and vanilla extract to coconut cream; beat one minute more. Taste and add more sugar if desired.
- Add sugar and vanilla extract to coconut cream; beat one minute more. Taste and add more sugar if desired.
- Remove the Chocolate Mousse from the fridge and top with the whipped cream. Serve immediately.
