Moo-Less Chocolate Pie

Moo-Less Chocolate Pie

Tofu replaces cream in this light, dairy-free chocolate dessert. This is my favorite tofu trick. I’ve served this chocolate pie to dozens of unsuspecting dessert lovers and not one has ever suspected the curd within. The trick to mastering a mousse consistency in this pie is the chocolate. A higher percentage of cacao (like that found in bittersweet chocolate) will lead to a firmer, fudgier pie, while a lower percentage (like milk chocolate) will give you a lighter, moussier texture. Semisweet chocolate should land you right in a textural sweet spot ... so to speak. This recipe first appeared in Season 3 of Good Eats. Photo by Lynne Calamia
