    Sugar-Free Chocolate Mousse To Die For


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 package (4-serving size) chocolate sugar-free instant pudding mix
    1 package (about 10 ounces) soft tofu
    1 heaping tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
    1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee crystals (more, if you like mocha flavoring)
    1 to 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled

    Recipe



    Use an electric mixer to beat the pudding mix, tofu, cocoa powder and coffee crystals until very smooth.
    In a separate bowl, whip the cream until just about stiff.
    Turn the mixer to its lowest setting, blend in the pudding mixture, and turn off the mixer -- quickly. (If you over-beat, you'll end up with chocolate butter.)
    Yield: Made with 1 cup of heavy cream, you'll get 6 servings, each with 8 grams of carbohydrates and 1 gram of fiber, for a total of 7 grams of usable carbs and 5 grams of protein. Made with 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream, your yield increases to at least 7 servings, each with 7.5 grams of carbohydrates and just less than 1 gram of fiber, for a total of about 6.5 grams of usable carbs and 4 grams of protein. (Carpender likes this made with the smaller amount of cream, for a sturdier texture, but she knows folks who like it with the larger amount, for a fluffier texture. It's your choice.)
    Sugar-Free Vanilla Mousse To Die For!: Substitute sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix and a teaspoon of vanilla extract, and omit the cocoa powder and the coffee crystals.
