Vegan Chocolate Coconut Cream Pie
This is a comforting and fun vegan dessert.
2 cups non-dairy chocolate chips
1/2 cup vanilla non-dairy creamer
1 1/2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
FOR THE FILLING:
1 pound (16 ounces) silken tofu, firm
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon coconut extract
2 cups non-dairy chocolate chips, melted
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
1. Coat 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. Heat non-dairy creamer in a small pan until hot, but not boiling. Add chocolate chips slowly and stir until melted, keeping heat on low. Stir in coconut. Pour into prepared pie plate, smooth out, and refrigerate until shell is hardened.
2. While shell is in the refrigerator, prepare the filling. Place tofu in a food processor and blend until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Add sugar and coconut extract.
3. Melt chocolate chips in microwave or double boiler. Pour melted chocolate into food processor and process until combined. Stir coconut in by hand. Pour into prepared pie shell. Sprinkle with more coconut if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve (at least 8 hours is best for it to hold its shape.)
Serves 6-8
