Ingredients:

  1. 2 cans - 100% pure pumpkin puree (15 oz. each) not pumpkin pie filling
  2. 1 pounds - silken tofu drained well
  3. 1/2 cups - pure maple syrup
  4. 1 1/2 teaspoons - cinnamon ground
  5. 3/4 teaspoons - ground ginger
  6. 1/4 teaspoons - ground nutmeg
  7. 1/4 teaspoons - ground cloves
  8. 1/4 teaspoons - sea salt
  9. 1/2 cups - nonfat plain Greek style yogurt
  10. 1 ounces - dark chocolate cut into thin shards (about 1/4 cup)

Directions:

1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine pumpkin and tofu. Process until combined, about 30 seconds. Add maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Process until combined, about 30 seconds more.

2. Transfer mousse to a resealable container, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
