Chocolate Peanutbutter Pie
1 pound firm tofu
1/2 to 2/3 cup vegan chocolate chips, melted
1/2 to 2/3 cup peanut butter
1/2-1 cup nondairy milk (I use soy)
1 baked vegan graham cracker crust
1. Put tofu in a blender with the melted chocolate chips and the peanut butter with 1/2 cup milk to start. Blend the ingredients together until very smooth, this may take a while if your blender is not super high powered.
2. Taste the mixture and see what else it needs. Add more chocolate and peanut butter to your liking. It may be necessary to add a little more milk if you are having trouble blending the yummy mixture.
3. Put the mixture into a baked pie crust and smooth out the pie surface. You can make fancy designs in the surface if you want.
4. Place the pie into the refrigerator for about 1 hour until it is firm to the touch. Cut and serve to the chocolate and peanut butter fans in your life.
Yum yum! This pie is so wicked! Make it for all your vegan friends!
SO HOW'D IT GO?
I made this last night, and it is delicious! My whole omni family loves it! I melted the soy, peanutbutter, and chocolate chips in a pan before blending, which helped. I also added half of a banana. It came together so beautifully :D and it was the easiest dessert I have ever made. Thank you!
Okay, this pie was seriously, outrageously good !!! >:D I ate two pieces (OMG)! I love Peanut Butter & Co . i used Mighty Maple, yum!
This pie is awesome! ;)b I used silken tofu (all I had) and maple peanut butter. The batter was so good, I cant wait to eat a big ol piece!
WOW!!! This recipe is awesome and so EASY!!!! Everyone loved it - even the omni-people. I've made it with firm and extra firm tofu - either one works, but I liked the firm better, it seemed to end up slightly softer. I would love to find a way to make this even softer yet - somewhere between a mousse and cheesecake but not sure how one would do that. A graham cracker crust makes this recipe very quick to make, however I made it twice with a nut crust and it worked out just as well. I used one cup of nuts to a quater-cup of agave, first chopping the nuts in the FP until very fine - almost a flour, then pressing it into a greased pie dish. It's hard to believe on the first bite that there are only three ingredients in it (well, four if you count the milk), it is soooo tasty - and addictive I might add! >:D
Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's a definite keeper!
This pie was delish!!! Very rich and creamy, and nobody would guess tasting it that it was made with any soy! Tastes like it's made with lots of cream cheese/heavy cream. I also added a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Super easy to make, took me all of ten minutes including the graham cracker crust. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a crowd pleasing dessert, vegan or not! ;)b ;)b
i'm making this tonight, let everyone know how it turns out
This is my go-to dessert recipe to please non-vegans. I have eaten many tofu pies and "cheesecakes" in restaurants but I love this homemade one the best.
I recently used a graham cracker crust, one package of extra firm/lite tofu, 1 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chunks, 1/2 cup of peanut butter, and two pureed bananas instead of soymilk. I HIGHLY recommend the addition of bananas if you love PB&B sandwiches and because they make the pie sweeter. I also melted my chocolate chips with the peanut butter in a microwave which really helped with the blending.
thanks hotcooknmama for your answer. if the supermarkets wouldn't close so early here at saturdays ;) i would have bought some berries as you suggested. :)
so i ended up sprinkling only some apricot jam on the pie crust and then added the filling (450 g silken tofu + 1.5 cups chopped chocolate + almost 1 cup peanut butter + pinch of vanilla). next time i'll rather use half a cup of PB (cause for me the PB taste was too intense) and serve it as a dessert in a glass with fresh berries, a cherry sauce and some soyatoo whipped cream i think. :o)
i'm gonna make this this week-end. to make it a bit fresher in taste (i'm scared that it is too herb/rich or something) i'd like to add some berries or other fruits. any suggestions? i've never made or eaten an peanut butter pie so i don't know what would go along with it. help! :)
I'd think along the lines of fruit that's good with chocolate: maybe strawberries or raspberries? Maybe fruit (or fruit sauce) on top of the pie, like you'd do with 'cheese'cake?
Taste the choc/ pb mix (from the blender) before adding the fruit, though... you may like it without!
:-)
