When you know what this pie is made of...

You may not want to eat it. But, when have I ever led you astray? Never, I hope, and if I have I truly apologize. But trust me, despite the fact that tofu is one of the main ingredients of this pie, it really is scrumptious. And it is easy to boot! I wonder where the whole anti-tofu thing came from anyhow. What did it ever do to anyone? Plus, this recipe is good for all of those times that you are entertaining vegans, which I'm sure is ALL the time ;). Vegan or not, however, I can guarantee that it will disappear instantly once served.

My photo once again does not do it justice:






What's Inside:
-1 package chocolate chips
-1/4 cup hazelnut liqueur
-2 tbsp strong brewed coffee
-1 tbsp honey
-1 premade chocolate or Oreo pie crust
-1 pound silken tofu, drained
-1 tsp vanilla extract

How to Make It:
-Boil water in a saucepan and melt chocolate chips, liqueur, coffee and vanilla extract in a sauceplan placed on top of boiling water.
-Combine this chocolate mixture, the tofu, and honey in a blender or food processor until well-combined
-Pour into crust and set in refrigerator for a couple of hours or until firm
-Serve with whipped cream or alone, it is great either way!
