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!!

I made this last night and it’s awesome. So quick, simple,and delicious. I can’t believe it took me so long to learn about this recipe.. this is going to be a staple!
I made this with two packs of tofu and a whole bag of chocolate chips, then put it in and almond meal crust ( 1 1/3 cup almond meal 3 tablespoons butter) in a springform pan. It was like chocolate cheese cake yumm!!!!
This pie was SO GOOD. New staple recipe in my house!!! I brought it to school for a belated Pi Day celebration in my math class (we had finals on the real Pi Day), and it also happened to be my friend’s bday today so it was perfect – Everyone who tried it loved it so much. Even this one guy who NEVER says nice things about anything/anyone told me that it was incredible and gave me a fist bump, lol. Thanks!!! I can’t wait to try new combos – my mom thinks it would be good with a tiny bit of orange cointreau … I think I’m going to try raspberry or mint extract next!
hi, just wondering what type of chocolate (brand as well please) you used? thanks so much!
This pie was absolutely fantastic! It was a huge hit at my family’s Easter brunch and you’re right – no one knew it contained tofu! I wrote a recap of my family’s reaction and posted some photos here: http://www.veganiowan.com/2013/04/easter-recap-and-worlds-easiest.html.
Thanks for the inspiration! I made this today, with the following ingredients:
325 grams very firm tofu, pressed out as much water as i could
2 overripe bananas
200 grams dark chocolate
bit of extra cacao
bit of salt
Crust: oatmeal, cacao, coconut oil, honey -> bake 10 min
It turned out as a nice and firm mousse, absolutely delicious!! No tofu taste whatsoever. Will definitely make more versions. Thank yoooouuu!
I’m thinking of spreading a thin layer of peanut butter under the mousse next time I make it… Ooooooh can’t wait!
Just curious, did you calculate the calories for this without the crust since you don’t usually use one?
Hi! I just wanted to say that I made this today, and my family of non-health food eaters loved it! it was amazing, thank you so much for the recipe. I will definitely be making it again.
I have loved every recipe I’ve tred from here – and that’s been a lot of recipes. I have to admit I was a little skeptical of this one. I’ve never had tofu and really didn’t want to try it. But I decided to give it a shot. I couldn’t find the tofu you recommended and almost gave up on making it because I didn’t want to use a different tofu. Well I went ahead and bought the kroger organic brand of firm tofu because that was basically my only option. Well, I can honestly say I’m in love with this pie!! It’s soooo good!! My kids love it too! My husband however didn’t – oh well – more for me!
Whoa, so would I be correct in calculating that using lite tofu and no chocolate chips or crust, the ENTIRE pie would have less than 200 calories?!
