Yummy Chocolate PIE

In an effort to eat healthier and dairy-free, I've been addicted to a super yummy vegan dessert blog.   I know it's hard to imagine a dessert being yummy without dairy or eggs, but it really is possible.  I've tried several of the desserts on her blog (I'll list them at the end of this post), but here's my favorite:

Sounds crazy, but tofu is the heart of the pie and really is what makes it smooth and delicious.  I have tried it with "soft" silken tofu (must be silken!) and it turns out more like pudding, but the "extra firm" is more like a traditional chocolate pie.  You can't tell it's tofu, I promise! 

Like I said, this is may fave, but here are a few other recipes I've tried from the same blog:
Cookie Dough Dip (this is okay. I just can't get over the chick peas)
One Minute Chocolate Cake (this is awesome!!!!)
Snickerdoodle Blondies (promise you can't taste the chick peas in this one!)

Happy, healthy cooking!!!!
