EDIT:
IÂ finally have a Pumpkin Pinterest Board!
What does chocolate + pumpkin equal?
Anyone?
Anyone?
One incredibly-delicious dessert, that’s what.
And it’s gluten-free!
No-Bake Chocolate Pumpkin Pie
Ingredients
- 15 oz pureed pumpkin (or 1 can)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1-2 tsp cocoa powder
- level 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- sweetener of choice, to taste
Instructions
Melt the chocolate (either on the stove or in the microwave), then throw everything into a food processor and blend until it is super-smooth. Pour into a pie crust and fridge until chilled. This pie gets firmer and firmer, the longer it sits. Perhaps you could try baking this, too. If anyone does, I’d love to hear how it works. I was too lazy (read: too greedy and hungry) to take the time to bake mine, so I was happy it worked as a no-bake pie!
Highly recommended: top with *Homemade Cool Whip*
What’s on your Thanksgiving menu?
I might make apple pie, or my Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Bars.
Or I might just make both. Then I won’t feel bad if all the addictive oatmeal-raisin bars happen to disappear before they get to the Thanksgiving table. I can’t resist those darn bars! (I might also make pecan pie… I really don’t know yet!)
Can I make the chocolate pumpkin pie without the crust? Do you think it would work?
Sorry, I’ve never tried so I can’t say.
thank you for the recipe,
so you cook and puree the pumpkin first or you puree it raw?
thank you!
Look forward to trying this. I achieve similar coloring results with homemade nut butter and cocoa.
Oooh! I gotta try this! I always have this stuff on hand- except for the pie crust and pumpkin, but that’s just two items to add to the grocery list. Looks delish!
Just made this crustless in a ramekin. This recipe is so easy and tastes like chocolate cheesecake. Can’t wait to try more recipes on this site, everything looks incredible!
Just made this tonight for our family with some whipped cream on top of each piece. My husband and eight year old daughter gobbled it up! It was SO good 🙂 We were talking about how sometime instead of in a pie crust, we could even put it into ramekins and make custards for something different.
Hi Katie! In your directions I am confused about the what to do with the melted chocolate chips. Do you place the melted chocolate in the food processor with the rest of the ingredients? Or this for the topping?
If this is for the topping, would you recommend using chocolate syrup for the topping instead?
Yes, in the food processor.
I am SO about to make this in like 5 minutes but I don’t have a pie crust so we’ll see what happens!
Those pumpkin desserts Look SO DELICIOUS !!!!!!
I added some cinnamon (maybe 1/2 tsp) and a little bit of cayenne– yum!
