Tofu Chocolate Mousse

Does anyone have the recipe for the Tofu Chocolate Mousse? I can't seem to find it.

This was under another thread (Chocolate Tofu Mousse):

Chocolate Mousse

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
1 (12.3-ounce) package reduced-fat extra-firm tofu
1/4 tsp salt
3 large egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
Fat-free whipped topping, thawed (optional)
Grated chocolate (optional)

1. Place chocolate and tofu in a food processor or blender, and process 2 minutes or until smooth.
2. Place salt and egg whites in a medium bowl, and beat with a mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until candy thermometer registers 238º. Pour the hot sugar syrup in a thin stream over egg whites, beating at high speed. Gently stir one-fourth of meringue into the tofu mixture, gently fold in remaining meringue. Spoon 1/2 cup mousse into each of 8 (6-ounce) custard cups. Cover and chill for at least 4 hours. Garnish with whipped topping and grated chocolate, if desired

I remember the reviews saying that using silken tofu make a big difference in the finished product. Enjoy.
