I love the combination of chocolate and orange. This is a very elegant and not over sweet dessert.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar

7 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa

2 tablespoons grand marnier (orange-flavored liqueur)

1 teaspoon grated orange rind

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 dash salt

2 (12 1/3 ounce) packages lowfat silken tofu, drained

3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

3 oranges, peeled and sectioned

Directions:

1. Combine the first 7 ingredients in a blender or food processor; process mixture until smooth.
2. Place chopped chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1 minute or until almost melted; stir until smooth. Add chocolate to tofu mixture; process until smooth.
3. Divide orange sections evenly among 6 bowls or parfait glasses; top each serving with 1/2 cup mousse. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.
