Description
If you're ever looking for a no-fail, crowd-pleasing dessert, this silky no bake vegan chocolate pie is just that. With a gluten free chocolate cookie crust and a smooth, mousse-like filling, it's impossibly good!
Ingredients
Crust:
- 10.5 oz package Oreos (gluten free if needed)
- 1/4 cup melted vegan butter
Filling:
- 16 oz silken tofu, drained
- 1 5.4 oz can coconut cream (cream only - discard liquid)
- 3/4 cup cane sugar
- 1/2 cup cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
- 12 oz dark chocolate chips, melted
- 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste or extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup vegan coconut whipped cream (this is the brand we use)
Instructions
Crust:
- Add cookies and melted butter to a food processor. Pulse until they form a crumbly mixture.
- Pour into 9-in. tart pan with removable bottom and press into pan using a spatula (or your hands). Use a 1/3 cup measuring cup to evenly tamp the crust down. Place in freezer while you make filling.
Filling:
- Melt chocolate chips and set aside for a few minutes to cool slightly.
- Add all ingredients except whipped cream to a blender and blend on high until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in whipped cream, then pour into crust. Smooth with a spatula.
- Cover (optional) and place in refrigerator. Chill for 4-6 hours or overnight. Serve with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
If you're not gluten free, regular Oreos work perfectly. Plus, they're naturally vegan!
Sugar is best: We tested this recipe with alternative sweeteners like syrup and agave, but regular old cane sugar worked the best, and we wouldn't vouch for any other option.
Chocolate: We used 75% cacao dark chocolate in this recipe. If you've never melted chocolate in a microwave before, it's easy. Just heat in 15 second increments, stirring every time the clock runs out. Repeat this process until the chocolate is fully melted.
Serving suggestion: Top with whipped cream and use a grater to shave some chocolate on top. Some fresh fruit like raspberries or blueberries would also pair nicely with this chocolate pie.
Blend twice if needed: depending on your blender, you may need to blend the filling more than once to make sure everything is well incorporated. Be sure to scrape down the sides in between blending for best results.
