P.S. Thanks to all who now follow me on Pinterest!
What if I told you that in less than ten minutes, you can make this homemade chocolate fudge pie:
What if I told you that this chocolate fudge pie is…
- Dangerously rich and delicious
- Much healthier than it tastes – and lower in calories!
- Did I mention it only has 6 ingredients?
Warning: If you bring this chocolate pie to parties, people will devour every last chocolatey bite. And then they’ll realize they’re about to choke from gobbling it up so fast they forgot to stop and breathe. Sounds intense… but don’t worry. If you make this, you will never bring it to a party.
You won’t want to share.
The ultimate “does not taste healthy” dessert.
Even my health-food-hating friends like this pie. Actually, I don’t know a single person who doesn’t! If you’re looking for a healthy dessert to bring to a party that does NOT taste healthy, this is the dessert to bring.
Well, maybe this pie and the Deep Dish Cookie Pie.
My friends say it’s a tie. I say this pie wins.
Today is my birthday! Someone suggested I should take the day off from blogging. But that’d be no fun. You know what would be fun? Sharing one of my absolute favorite recipes in the whole wide world!
The Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Pie
The Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Pie
Ingredients
- 12.3 oz silken or firm tofu (I highly recommend Mori-Nu silken-firm for no aftertaste)
- 1 1/2 tsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp milk of choice
- scant 1/8 tsp salt
- 8 to 10 oz chocolate chips (about 1 1/2 cups or more)
- 2-3 tbsp sweetener of choice (If you are used to less-sweet desserts, you can omit)
- optional: extracts, flavorings, or liqueurs
Instructions
Carefully melt the chocolate (either on the stove or in the microwave – google how to melt chocolate), then throw everything into a food processor and blend until super-smooth. Pour into a pie crust if desired. Fridge until chilled. This gets firmer and firmer, the longer it sits. It’s also firmer if you use firm tofu and more like mousse pie if you use silken.
I promise you, everyone will rave about it, and no one will believe it has tofu!!

Dear God, how could anyone hate pie crust???? My all time favorite thing in the world. I could throw away the chocolate and eat the crust. Joking aside, this looks good. I should make this for the chocolate lovers in my life.
Oh we would be good friends! You could have all the crust… leaving all the chocolate pie filling for me ;).
Quick question: Does the nutrition info take the crust into account or no? I noticed you said you don’t usually use crust so I wasn’t sure…thanks! 🙂
Nope, not included. I didn’t give a recipe for crust, so I couldn’t calculate any numbers in there for it. Besides, I usually eat it crustless anyway :).
I think I’ll have it crustless too (like a mousse…mmm!) but for a party this weekend I might take it in a crust as it looks so darn awesome. Thanks!
I made this recipe yesterday and it tastes amazing. Even my BF loved it and he is pretty anti healthy food 🙂 Thumbs up from me !!
I am so so happy y’all liked it!! 🙂
Heyyyyy! Hope your birthday was great! I made this using a medium firm tofu!!! AMMAAAZZZZING… great recipe buddy!
🙂 🙂 🙂
Hi Katie. I made this pie today and it is TOTALLY delicious. I’m glad that it’s healthy since it has protein from the tofu, but is fairly low in calories. Perhaps you used a different type of chocolate than me, but I used semi-sweet chocolate chips (but didn’t use additional sweetener), and it came out closer to 175 calories total than 143. It was around 140 for the chocolate chips alone (for 8 servings). Can you tell me what type of chocolate you used?? It was worth every calorie though, especially since less than 200 is still a very healthy dessert.
The difference could be in the tofu too. I calculated it with mori nu lite firm.
This looks like a pie my roommate and I made and ate excessively in college. Only we did these crazy things:
Melted a second bag of chocolate chips and pour half this second bag *and* a very generous serving of almond butter on the crust before adding the chocolate/tofu filling, and then added more melted chocolate and almond butter on the top. Let set. Everyone who tries this will fall in love with you. Even though you’ve gained 15 pounds from eating a pie a week for the past two months. It’s worth it.
Wow, just READing about that pie has made me fall in love with it!
I am so about to get in my kitchen and whip this up! Like, as soon as I post this! I think I might make it in a larger glass bowl and then just eat it with graham crackers as my spoon 🙂
I do looooove to make deserts with tofu. It absorbs the flavors so well and noone ever can guess what is in it. I made a vegan pumpkin cheesecake for my family recently and they kept trying to guess, but never got it. Of course, I’ll pass on telling them it’s tofu… for whatever reason, the word itself seems to make people do one of those weird faces! It’s delicious, that’s all that matters, right!? Can’t wait to taste this!!
Ooh I hope you like it!
Haha yes, that IS all that matters! That’s why I often don’t tell people what’s in something until AFTER they make up their minds as to whether or not they like it. I don’t want their judgment to be clouded. 🙂
Hi Katie, do you use milk chocolate or semi-sweet choc chips for this recipe? Thanks!
I don’t use milk chocolate, because I’m a vegan. But either will work in the recipe :).
I made this twice on the weekend, SOOOOOOO delicious, I had to make it twice since I was sharing with everyone 😛 This was such an easy but decedent dessert, thank you!
Thank YOU for trying it!! I’m always so excited when someone else likes this, because it’s one of my favorite recipes :).
I agree with your friends…the fudge pie is better than the cookie pie . I made the cookie pie last week and it was good. My husband couldn’t even tell there were beans in it. I made the fudge pie today and it was so good and so easy. Great chocolate flavor. Thanks!
Glad someone agrees with me! Cookie dough is nice… but it’d be better if it were all chocolate, right? 😉
