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!)
This would be perfect for Thanksgiving since the oven will be in high demand! I am going to try and make a pumpkin cheesecake this year instead of the traditional pumpkin pie.
Looks so yummy!! I will have to try this over Thanksgiving since my oven will be full of other food, Thanks so much for the recpie, Happy Thanksgiving!!
That first picture (along with the rest) is amazing! Seriously, you are such a talented photographer! I need lessons from you 😉 I may have to make this for Thanksgiving! I just get wobbly knees when I see pumpkin AND chocolate 😛

Most delicious looking thing I’ve seen in months. I must have it now.
I love no bake pies! And chocolate + pumpkin = Heaven!
My part in the Thanksgiving feast(s) are: Crescent Rolls, Beans & Dumpling Soup, Orange Rolls, Cranberry Crisp, Sweet Potato Bourbon Pie & Pumpkin Oatmeal, Cranberry & Chocolate Chip Cookies! It sounds like a lot of sweets but I swear we’re eating real food like stuffing, green beans & mashed potatoes. I am just not the one making them! 🙂
Woah, no-bake AND can be whipped up in just a few minutes?
Okay. This is going on Pinterest.
mmm this looks quite delicious! I’m getting all ready for Thanksgiving! 🙂
How can I not put this on my pinterest? Your recipes are always so simple and delicious!
oh, and it reminds me of Tony The Tiger and I like that.. lol
–I’m making this.
It looks Incred. X
I made this and OOMMGGGG. It’s soo good. I used a little less chocolate chips and 3 packets of stevia. yum yum yum. didn’t bother with the pie crust-I just put it in a baking dish and stuck it in the fridge.
bad news: the trader joes in NYC is out of pumpkin until next year!
Oh wow, I am so excited you already made it!!
I have a tiny apartment with a large food processor. I am trying to prove to my husband that I actually use it so I’m always on the look out for recipes that involved the food processor
Hi Katie do you have a recipe for a pie crust?
Sorry, I don’t. Maybe I need to try experimenting… maybe for Thanksgiving!
Thank you for your great blog! I just made this — without the pie crust as a kind of chocolate mousse. It will be a surprise desert today 🙂
Aww, thank YOU for trying it! It always makes me so happy when people try my recipes!
Good idea! When I saw this I was lamenting the fact that I don’t have a crust to use but now I have no excuse 😉
What a simple pie recipe…luv it !:) I made a raw pumpkin pie the other day too!
so i have white chocolate and bittersweet dark chocolate lying around to be used up…would you recommend any recipe changes for those (maybe more sweetener for the bittersweet chocolate, or less for white chocolate? not sure..)?
Hmmm… I’ve never tried it with white, so I don’t know. But yeah, I’d just add extra sweetener if using the bittersweet.
Hi Kaite,
ummm I LOVE YOU FOR THIS!!! i made it last night and i have finished like a third of it already!!! mine is more brown than yours from (i melted semi and bitter sweet chocolate) but i cant believe how great it is. you can taste the pumpkin and chocolate at the same time without either overpowering the other! I garnished mine with white chocoalte chips and its unbelievable! i love how little went in to it! all other recipes i would see for pie had either cream or milk or tofu, this just had pumpkin and chocolate!!
happy thanksgiving!! oh and btw now that december is rolling around, do you know any more mint chocolate recipes or ones with peppermint and candycanes? thanks!
lol i am trying to justify eating this pie by the fact i should be running a 10mile turkey trot. this counts as carb loading right? 😉
Haha yeah! Pumpkin and chocolate are carbs. I am so excited you liked the pie!! 🙂
Oh, and I have a TON of peppermint and candy cane recipes I want to post soon! 🙂
(Also, I already have a few posted: peppermint whipped cream, mint chocolate chip ice cream, mint chocolate chip milkshake…) 🙂
