These chocolate tofu “Iron Domes” (a nod to Israel's missile defense system) are a vegan, kosher-for-Passover dessert with plenty of protein: velvety chocolate and tofu mousse on a crunchy hazelnut base.
Ingredients
- 1 cup hazelnuts
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 60 g (2.1 oz) dark chocolate, melted
- 1 package silken tofu
- 200 g (7 oz) good-quality dark chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Toast the hazelnuts in a dry skillet, then grind them with the almond flour.
- Mix the ground nuts with the 60 g (2.1 oz) melted chocolate, flatten, and shape into disks. Freeze until set.
- Blend the silken tofu with the 200 g (7 oz) melted chocolate until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the mousse into a dome-shaped silicone mold.
- Place a hazelnut crunch disk on each dome and freeze until completely set.
- Remove from the freezer about 15 minutes before serving, unmold, and dust with cocoa powder.
Tips
In a hurry to serve? Microwave for 20–30 seconds. For a little variety, top with chopped toasted hazelnuts or a sprinkle of coarse salt.
