Whey Hey Recipe Challenge #2
This tastes far too naughty for it to be in any way healthy but fear not, this indulgent dessert is full of clean eating ingredients. The chocolate ‘mousse’ adds a rich layer in between the very tasty and fruity Berry Chia Jam, while the topping of Strawberry Whey Hey ice cream finishes this off perfectly – one to serve for others maybe!
For the Banana & Chocolate Tofu Mousse:
- 1 x 300g pack of silken tofu
- 1 banana
- Splash of apple juice
- ½ tub of Quark (fat-free soft cheese)
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1-2 tbsp stevia
- Few drops of vanilla essence
Simply place all ingredients together in a blender and whizz up until totally smooth. Add more juice if too thick; you want it a creamy ‘mousse’ like texture. This will make about 3-4 servings. Leave to chill until needed.
For the Berry Chia Jam:
- 150g frozen mixed berries
- 1 tbsp stevia (or to taste)
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
Simply put the berries in a small pan with a dash of water, heat up, simmer until the juices run out then stir in the chia seeds. Simmer for a further few minutes (you may want to add more water as the seeds will quickly absorb liquid) then pour into a tub, leave to cool then keep in the fridge until needed.
Get tucking in! Using wine glasses or sundae dishes, spoon some of the berry chia jam at the bottom (about ⅔ of the glass). Fill another third with the chocolate tofu mousse, then spoon in a tub of Strawberry Whey Hey ice cream which should just about fill to the top. Sprinkle with flaked almonds then you’re ready to go!
