MOO-LESS CHOCOLATE PIE
Steps:
- Place enough water in the bottom of a 4-quart saucepan to come 1 inch up the sides. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Melt the chocolate chips with the liqueur and vanilla in a medium metal bowl set over the simmering water, stirring often with a rubber or silicone spatula. Combine the tofu, chocolate mixture and honey in a blender or food processor and spin until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the filling sets firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spin the cookies and sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs. Then drizzle in the butter, pulsing to combine. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom, up the sides and just over the lip of a 9-inch metal pie pan.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven until crust is set and appears dry, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely, about 1 hour.
MOO-LESS CHOCOLATE PIE II
This is my version of Alton Brown's Moo-Less Chocolate Pie. It is so easy and the tastiest of desserts! The first time I made it I didn't tell anyone it's made with Tofu. When I finally fessed up they wouldn't believe me! Prep time includes minimum chilling time.

CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO MOO-LESS PIE
The creamy, rich and decadent pie is SOOOO easy to make, and it's VEGAN! I know everyone will love this whether they know it contains tofu or not... This recipe was inspired by one I saw on Alton Brown's Tofu episode, as well as a recipe I saw on the website: The Everyday Dish. You can use either a homemade graham cracker or chocolate cookie crumb crust, OR you can make your own from scratch. The store bought vegan crumb crust I got was pretty lifeless, so next time I think I will make my own!

Steps:
- Place a small metal bowl over a saucepan with simmering water. Melt the chocolate and coffee liqueur in the bowl. Stir in vanilla.
- Combine the tofu, chocolate mixture, and honey in the blender jar. Liquefy until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the filling is set. Don't pause in this step or it might set up before you finish getting it into the pan! If it does it's okay but it makes it difficult to spread into the pan.
- Note: I have bad luck finding a good prepared chocolate wafer crust so I use a prepared graham cracker crust.
- Optional: Add a dollop of cool whip or dump the whole tub on the cake like a meringue. I think it's too rich this way, my husband loves it.

Tips:
- Use a high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the pie will be. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Make sure the chocolate is finely chopped. This will help it melt smoothly and evenly.
- Don't overcook the chocolate. Overcooked chocolate will be grainy and bitter.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
- Serve the pie with fresh berries or whipped cream. This will add a touch of sweetness and creaminess to the pie.
Conclusion:
This vegan chocolate pie is a rich and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its creamy filling and chocolate cookie crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
