Recently I needed a fast dessert to bring to a party. I didn’t really have time to make something, and not that there is anything wrong with buying something to bring, it just really isn’t me. So I needed to improvise 🙂 My mom had recently sent me a 5 minute recipe for a Tofu Dream Pudding. (Thanks Mom!) I figured why not use this recipe to make a quick pie.

The pudding was incredible!!! We could have just eaten this on its own but it was super deelish as a pie filling as well.

It is easier to slice when frozen, but even more deelish when defrosted!

Tofu chocolate Pudding & Whipped Cream Pie

Pudding
Recipe adapted from food.com

• 2 boxes of firm silken tofu (the asceptic type…One brand is Mori-Nu…not the water packed kind!)
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 teaspoons almond extract
• 2/3 cup cocoa powder (good quality)

1. Simply blend tofu, cocoa, sugar, vanilla in a food processor or blender until smooth and well blended.
2. Add the almond extract in a little at a time, and adjust to taste. (optional)

Pie

• vegan pie shell (I chose chocolate…see picture below)
• vegan whip cream (I used Soyatoo Soy whipped cream and was not so impressed, buy Hip Whip instead)
• chocolate bar

1. Pour pudding into pie shell
2. Decorate with whipped topping and then grate chocolate over it.
3. Either serve immediately or freeze. (freezing made it perfect for travel! But it tastes best defrosted)

The pudding was amazing just on its own!
