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!!

This is my family’s favorite Chocolate Covered Katie recipe! Even though it has tofu (definitely not a family favorite), they love it. Whenever I make it, they insist on rationing the pieces to make sure that no one gets more than their fair share 🙂 I have been allergic to dairy my entire life, and this pie (with the diary substitutes) has allowed me to find out what chocolate fudge tastes like for the first time. Thanks, Katie!
I just made this and Love it! Thank you so much! I have one question. What size portion is the nutritional information for?
Hiya! I don’t have your recommended tofu, but I looked online and apparently there is another type of tofu that people use from Trader Joe’s. I know you have said before you don’t have a TJ’s, but do you know if Nigari Silken Tofu works for this recipe?
Oh, and would your chocolate chips work to be the chocolate chips in this?
I’ve seen that tofu, and although I can’t vouch for the taste it will be fine texture-wise. Not sure about the chocolate… if you try, let me know how it goes!
Thank you for responding!
Hi Katie,
I just made this pie and it’s in the fridge. Delicious! However I’m not sure that I’ll get it all eaten in time before it goes off, so I was wondering, do you think you could freeze it?
Hi Katie, I just made this pie. Absolutely delicious! However, I don’t think I’ll get it all eaten by the time it goes off, so I was wondering if you are able to freeze it? Thanks 🙂
I’m not sure. It might turn icy.
I just made this recipe for people that are not used to healthy desserts, and they love me (and you for that matter) for this recipe! I found your tofu, and I just used regular chocolate chips so no risks for them DELICIOUS! THANK YOU!
Katie! I am obsessed! This was the most amazing dessert ever! I couldn’t believe how creamy and smooth it was. Seriously so good. Thanks so much for such great recipes!!
Hey Katie! I love the way this tastes but I’m having trouble finding the ingredients that match the nutritional value of what you listed. I completed the recipe using the ingredients below, used 10 slices as my nutritional value, and I listed below what the total value was. What did I do wrong or which brands specifically did you use? I think what blew it out of the water for me were the chocolate chips (Ghiradelli). Thanks!!

I’ve made this cake twice in only a few days. It’s REALLY good! Today I had it with a crust made out of shredded coconut and dried apricots, and I served it with fresh raspberries. Just… wow. ‘Amazing’ doesn’t even cover it! I had my non-vegan friends try it and they were impressed, to say the least. Not a single crumb was left on the plate.
Also, thank you for this wonderful blog. I’m recovering from an ED and your recipes – as well as your attitude towards food – have offered me a lot of help. Thanks to you I’m not as afraid of fat and sugar anymore. 🙂 So yeah, thank you!
Made this for family reunion. Doubled the recipe for a 9×13″ pan, and used a mix of 78% and 72% cacao chocolate and lite firm and extra firm mori-nu silken tofu. Everybody enjoyed it, even my health-un-conscious dad.
