Key Lime Mousse

  • ✓ 1 x 12.3oz box shelf-stable extra firm silken tofu (or equivalent amount refrigerated silken tofu)
  • ✓ 1 Tablespoon lime zest (about 3 limes worth of zest)
  • ✓ 1/3 cup fresh or bottled key lime juice
  • ✓ 1/3 cup agave nectar - could sub maple syrup or date paste, but it might change the color
  • ✓ 1/3 cup unroasted cashews (boil for 10 minutes if you don’t have a high speed blender like a VitaMix or BlendTec)

Aquafaba Whipped Cream

  • 3⁄4 cup strained aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 cup organic powdered sugar

Optional Ingredients

  • Crushed vegan graham crackers or granola
  • Thinly sliced lime or lime zest for topping
  1. Add all key lime mousse ingredients to the blender and blend until completely smooth. Set aside in refrigerator to chill and thicken
  2. Add aquafaba and cream of tartar to a stand mixer bowl (or use a hand-held mixer) and whip on high speed until liquid becomes light and fluffy. This might take about 5 minutes.
  3. Slowly add powdered sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form, maybe 2-4 more minutes. Taste and adjust sugar as needed.
  4. To assemble parfaits, use clear glasses so you can see the pretty layers! Add some optional crushed graham crackers, followed by a layer of mousse, then a layer of aquafaba whipped cream. Keep adding layers to fill the cup and top with a thin slice of lime or lime zest.
