These deliciously chocolate and moreish pods are soooo easy to put together and make the perfect healthy dessert or sweet treat!
The secret ingredient here is SILKEN TOFU – which adds extra protein and helps to provide the light mousse texture! I’ve used a pre-made protein ball by the brand Purabon to simplify the process, but you can also make your own nut/date/cocoa mix too if you want 🥰
Here is the recipe:
