Easy and very good. Fooled my guest who thought tofu is disgusting.

Perfect!! I never would have believed it was tofu. So smooth and creamy and chocolatey...yummy!!

WOW!!!! This is a recipe worthy of 10 stars. It tastes like expensive truffles and has the texture of good mousse. I didn't tell anyone what was in it until after they all were sighing in pleasure and nobody could believe it was tofu. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips since it didn't specify and it has a nice dark chocolate flavor. I wanted to use my new 4 in mini-tart pans, so I just baked regular pie dough in them and filled them with the chocolate filling. Since the filling is so rich I served them with whipped cream on top. This recipe is a definite keeper and I want to experiment with using different liqueurs next time. Maybe some Irish cream or some creme de menth? Mmmmmm.....I can't wait. This is easily my new favorite dessert.
