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!!

Happy happy birthday! That chocolate pie looks insanely amazing…I am going to have to try 🙂
Happy Birthdayyyy!!!! Do you feel most accomplished today!?
I feel… old! lol
Oh wow, this looks super delicious!! But it looks like it has a crust? How did you make the crust?
Happy birthday, Katie!
Shhh… it’s store-bought ;).
I hate crust, and I usually make this crustless. It’s dense enough that it holds up crustless. But I thought a crust would look prettier for the photos :).
Ahh, I was hoping for a healthy crust recipe, haha. Thanks anyway.
Hi Katie,
I’m your newest follower! While I believe God put animals on this earth for us to eat, I don’t believe that they should be tortured by factory farming and genetic modifications before they are eaten…hence my new found vegetarianism/social omnivorism… 🙂 I made this pie last night and it is quite good. I think next time I’ll use evaporated cane juice instead of agave, b/c the agave added a weird flavor…but..(sorry for my long post!!!) I know you don’t like pie crust…but I do, and when I looked at store bought crusts, I was mortified by the trans fat (and even LARD!) in them. Can you help me find a good healthy vegetarian pie crust??? (Maybe with one of your cookie recipes???)
I’ve seen some at Whole Foods under a brand called “Wholly Healthy.” But you could always try googling “healthy pie crust” to find a recipe. Or maybe use cashew fudge baby batter, smushed into pie-crust form?
I have a daughter with an egg allergy, so we do a lot of vegan baking and I use the Cook’s Illustrated Foolproof pie crust for EVERYTHING. and if you sub the butter for a margarine of your choice, or vegetable shortening (Crisco)–though that’s not the healthiest or tasties choice, and use a raw sugar if you’re strictly vegan. As for graham cracker crusts, if you don’t mind not having vegan sugar, regular graham crackers are vegan and therefore you’d just need margarine to make a basic crust. However, you can also make graham crackers yourself if really feel like it. Graham cracker crusts are SO EASY there’s no reason to ever buy one filled with junk.
Hope that helps!
It looks awesome! I hope someone has a birthday soon, so I can make this 🙂 I rarely eat cakes/pies, but I enjoy making then 🙂
This looks so dense and rich. I love it! 🙂
Hope you have a chocolate covered birthday!
Oh my gosh. Haha, chocolate pie!! Really?
My birthday was on Sunday and on Monday we went and saw the new movie, “The Help”. The movie was sooo good, you would love it, Katie! Go watch it and you will understand.
Oh I do want to see it! I want to read the book too! 🙂
This looks fantastic! I have to make it 🙂
Happy Birthday! Have a wonderful day, celebrate with your family and friends, and enjoy your 26th year ahead. 🙂 My husband requests a very similar ‘Magic Pie’ (as we call it) every year for his birthday too! Mmm… so simple and delicious! I usually opt for something fruity, like cobbler, for my birthday, although mango cake and carrot cake make the occasional appearance.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! um you are the most amazing cook EVERRR THIS CAKE LOOKS DELICIOUS!!!
