Moo-less Chocolate Pie by Katie of Ruffles and Truffles
PIN IT!Ah, what do I say about Katie? She has become one of my closest friends and she pretty much saves my day by chatting with me on gchat every morning! Katie makes me laugh when I want to cry and helps me take my mind off the 1,000 going on. I’m so thankful to have Mrs. Compton in my life and thank you again for posting while I’M GETTING MARRIED!
Hi everyone! I’m Katie, and you can usually find me over at She Likes Ruffles, He Likes Truffles. However, I’m making a slight detour today! Typically, I like to talk about my daily fashion endeavors, my slightly neurotic tendencies, and food!
We’re going to talk about food today. Specifically: a recipe that I KNOW Claire will never make, because she claims to dislike the main ingredient. *Evil laugh…*
I’m talking about a moo-less chocolate pie. Alton Brown supplies the recipe, and how can you go wrong with Alton? Seriously.
To start: chocolate. You can use chocolate chips, but I managed to score a bag of dark chocolate Hershey’s Kisses on the day after Valentine’s Day for 75% off, so I chopped them up for this pie.
Then, I added some Kahlua and melted it all in the microwave. Mmmm.
Next: you prepare the “meat” of this pie: tofu. Yep. You heard me right. For this pie, I suggest silken tofu (aka soft tofu). It looks like this:
Make sure you open the package over the sink, because tofu is packed in liquid, and it will get all over your counter if you are dumb like me and don’t remember this fact. Anyway, throw the tofu in a processor with the melted chocolate and Kahlua…as well as honey.
Spread the mixture into a graham cracker or wafer crust. You can pick up a pre-made one, or simply throw about 5-6 graham crackers into a processor to create crumbs, pour into a pie plate, then add about 2 tablespoons of melted butter to bind the crumbs in the plate.
After the pie has been properly refrigerated, slice it up, add a dollop of whipped cream, and some chocolate shavings (if you’re feeling fancy). It is rich in chocolate flavor, but low on the guilt (and hey – you’re eating a serving of protein thanks to the tofu: score!!!)!
