Dessert tofu takes center stage in these decadent yet healthy bars. The base is nutty and slightly chewy, the tofu mousse is rich and creamy with a hint of chocolate, and the ganache top is smooth and indulgent. With added protein from tofu and optional vegan protein powder, these bars are a nourishing treat. Perfectly balanced with textures and flavors, they’re a sweet treat that’s hard to forget.

You can substitute the vegan chocolate hazelnut protein powder with 20g of hazelnuts for a more natural option.
Use a liquid sweetener of your choice, such as maple syrup or agave, to suit your taste.
If the tofu mousse is too thick to blend, scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor and continue blending until smooth.
Can I use regular tofu instead of silken tofu?
No, silken tofu is essential for the creamy texture of the mousse. Regular tofu will not blend as smoothly.
What can I use instead of hazelnut butter?
You can substitute hazelnut butter with almond butter or peanut butter, but it will slightly alter the flavor.
Can I skip the protein powder?
Yes, you can omit the protein powder entirely or replace it with 20g of hazelnuts for a similar nutty flavor.
How long do these bars keep?
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Can I freeze these bars?
Yes, you can freeze the bars for up to 1 month. Thaw them in the refrigerator before serving.
