Equipment
- Food Processor
- Chef's Knife
Ingredients
- 12 oz Firm Tofu
- 2 tsp Cocoa Powder
- 1.5 cups Chocolate Chips
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2.5 tbsp Milk of Choice
- 2-3 tbsp Sweetener of Choice
- 0.5 cup Peanut Butter Optional
- 1 pinch Instant Coffee Optional
Instructions
- Start by melting your chocolate chips. You can do this either on the stovetop or in the microwave. If you choose the microwave, heat them in short bursts to avoid burning.
- Next, prepare your tofu. Let it sit out for a few minutes until it reaches room temperature, which helps it blend more smoothly.
- In a food processor, combine the melted chocolate with the tofu, cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, and your choice of milk and sweetener. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
- If you’re adding peanut butter, pour it into the food processor and blend it until fully incorporated.
- Once blended, taste the mixture to check if it needs more sweetness. You can adjust by adding more sweetener if desired.
- Pour the mixture into a pie crust if you wish, or leave it crustless and pour it into ramekins for individual servings.
- Place the pie or ramekins in the refrigerator and allow them to chill for at least a couple of hours.
- After chilling, garnish your pie with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or fresh berries to make it extra special.
- Slice your Vegan Chocolate Pie and serve!
Notes
For storage, cover the pie with plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator. It’ll last up to five days.
