Oh wow yum-- sounds delicious AND nutritious :o)
This sounds great! I found out last week I have to give up soy, and I was despairing about never having chocolate-mousse pie made with silken tofu ever again. This looks like a great replacement option. Thanks for all the great soy-free ideas, your blog is making me much less scared.
