Chocolate silky cheesecake

Cacao Flavoured Silky Mousse

The cheesecake is one of the most delicious desserts we can eat, and also cook … I don’t use dairy, so I usually cook it with silken tofu, to give a similar texture and soft consistency.

This cacao flavoured silky mousse is combined with 100% pure cacao, it’s delicious. The bitterness of cocoa combined with the softness of tofu, it’s yummy, and healthy at the same time.

Instructions

  1. Process activated cashew nuts (you can actívate them soaking at least 5 to 6 hours), then strain and blend the rest of the ingredients of the crust: the Medjool dates, the rice syrup and the cacao powder. Transfer into individual moulds (or pie plate) and press well to get a fine crust in the base. Place in the freezer while working on the next step.

  2. Prepare a pan with boiling water, introduce the silken tofu and cook it simmering for 10 minutes. Dry the tofu well and let it cool down. Set aside and blend the tofu into a smooth consistency in a power blender. Add all remaining filling ingredients and blend until smooth. Pour over prepared crust and tap the pan on the counter a few times to smooth the filling out.

Optional: drizzle the yoghurt over the cake using a cake decorating pen or piping bag, create desired swirl pattern, sprinkle with any additional toppings. Freeze cake for 1 hour to set. Afterwards, keep it refrigerated until serving.
