My Valentines's Day thoughts are filled with chocolate. And there's no reason you can't indulge and still feel good about it. So Rebecca has come up with a chocolate mousse that's sure to delight, and don't let the first ingredient leave you saying, "NO WAY!"

The non-refrigerated box at 12.3 ounces is the perfect amount.

I promise one bite of this tofu-based mousse, and you'll be begging for more.

Dark Chocolate Good-for-You Mousse

Makes: 2 cups mousse

Servings: 6

Serving Size: 1/3 cup mousse, 1 generous tablespoon whipped cream, 1 strawberry

Ingredients

1 (12.3 ounce) package silken tofu, drained

3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

¼ cup water

1/3 cup sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla

¼ cup heavy cream (or light whipped cream in the spray can be used here)

5 strawberries

Directions:

Place the tofu in a food processor and blend until smooth. In a saucepan add 1 inch of water and heat to simmering. Place a bowl with the chopped chocolate, cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup water over the saucepan (or you can use a double boiler if you have one). Stir frequently, until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Mix in sugar, and vanilla a little at a time, until smooth. Add the chocolate mixture to the tofu and puree until smooth and well blended. Spoon the mousse into serving dishes, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

When almost ready to serve, Whip the cream with a beater. When the cream is almost completely whipped, add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and finish whipping. Cut the leaves off the strawberry, so it sits flat on the cutting board. Cut an "x" on the tip of each strawberry being careful not to cut all the way through to the flat bottom and place the whipped cream inside each strawberry "x" opening and serve on top of each mousse.

(I used non-fat whipped cream in the can to further reduce fat content.)

We saved 1048 calories and 81g of saturated fat by using silken tofu instead of whipping cream in this recipe which equals 175 less calories and 13.5 fewer grams of saturated fat (a day's worth for some people) per serving. Silken tofu is basically flavorless, so it takes on the flavor of whatever you add to it, so in this case it takes on the rich, wonderful flavor of chocolate!
