This recipe came from Mr. Brown. Alton Brown that is. It was pretty awesome.
Healthier Chocolate Pie
1 bag (13 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips1/3 cup coffee liqueur (store bought or make your own)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pound silken tofu, drained
1 tablespoon honey
1 (9-inch) prepared chocolate wafer crust (I used chocolate graham cracker but Oreo would have been better!)
- Place about an inch of water in the bottom of a 4-quart saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Melt the chocolate chips, coffee liqueur and vanilla in a medium metal bowl set over the simmering water, stirring frequently with a rubber or silicone spatula.
- Blend the tofu, melted chocolate and honey in a blender or food processor until smooth (about a minute)
- Pour the filling into prepared pie crust and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until set.
