Creamy Vegan Chocolate Pie Recipes

CREAMY VEGAN CHOCOLATE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly spray a 9" pie pan and set aside.
• In a food processor, combine the Oat Grahams and sugar. Mix until the graham crackers are broken down into a fine crumb. With the motor running, slowly add in the melted butter until it is completely incorporated. The crumbs should stick together when pressed between your fingers.
• Transfer the Oat Grahams/butter mixture to your prepared pie pan and evenly spread it across the bottom and up the edges. The crust should be about 1/4" thick. Place it in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the crust cool in the refrigerator while making your filling.
• To make your filling, melt the chocolate over a double boiler. Gently melt it, making sure not to overheat the chocolate as it will burn quickly.
• Once the chocolate is melted, combine the coconut milk, silken tofu, and chocolate in a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
• Spread evenly over chilled pie crust. Return to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours or until the pie is set.
• Serve with coconut whipped cream and chocolate shavings. The Pie should be stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. The leftover pie should be tightly wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or the freezer for up to 1 month.

VEGAN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PIE

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, pulse the whole Oreos into fine crumbs. (Alternatively, put the cookies into a freezer bag and crush them using a rolling pin).
• Transfer ground crumbs to a medium bowl, add melted vegan butter and stir until crumbs are evenly moistened.
• Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9 or 9,5-inch (23/24cm) tart pan with removable bottom (or pie pan). Place in the fridge or freezer for 15 minutes to firm up (or bake it for a crispier result *see notes).
• Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat 1/2 cup of the non-dairy cream in a small saucepan until it begins to boil. Then immediately pour it over the chocolate and stir until smooth. Let come to room temperature.
• In a mixing bowl, beat remaining chilled non-dairy cream with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Then gently fold in the chocolate mixture. Stir just until combined. Spoon into the prepared tart shell, smoothing out evenly. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until set.
• Repeat step 1 of the chocolate mousse: Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat the non-dairy cream in a small saucepan until it begins to boil. Then immediately pour over the chocolate and stir until smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature, then spread on top of the chocolate mousse. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes or until the ganache has set.
• Decorate your tart with fresh fruit, shredded coconut or other toppings you like. Serve chilled and enjoy!

VEGAN CHOCOLATE PIE

Steps:

• Combine almond milk and pudding mix in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, over medium heat. As soon as pudding boils, reduce heat to low and continue cooking and stirring until pudding thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted. Pour into graham crust and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
• Top with vegan whipped cream.

VEGAN CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE (NO TOFU!)

Steps:

• If baking the crust, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place cookies in a food processor and pulse until the cookies are in fine crumbs. (You don't want any large pieces left).
• Add melted butter and pulse to combine until all the crumbs are moistened and the mixture resembles wet sand. (It should stick together when pinched.)
• Pour crumb mixture out into a 9″ pie dish.
• Use your fingers or the back of a measuring cup (my favorite!) to pat down the crust smoothly along the bottom of the pie pan and up the sides of the dish. Even out the edges of the crust with your finger.
• For a no-bake crust, chill the crust 20-30 minutes while you make your filling. For a baked crust, bake 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees F. Cool before adding the filling.
• In a medium saucepan, whisk together cocoa powder, cornstarch, and coconut sugar. Pour in coconut milk and almond milk.
• Bring the mixture up to a boil, whisking constantly to help avoid lumps.
• Boil 2-3 minutes, or until mixture is visibly thicker. (You want it to really thicken.)
• Remove pudding from the heat and add chocolate chips, vanilla, and salt.
• Whisk to combine until the chocolate chips are completely melted. (Mixture will be quite thick now.)
• Remove pie crust from the refrigerator and pour in your chocolate cream filling.
• Cover the pie with plastic wrap or beeswax wrap and chill until completely chilled through and set, at least 2-3 hours. (I love making this pie even further ahead-8-12 hours.)
• When ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and uncover. Top with whipped topping and shaved chocolate, as desired. Note: the surface of the pie may crack as it chills. This is totally fine. That's what whipped cream is for!
