In last week’s post, I mentioned how silken tofu creates a deliciously ‘creamy’ texture, making it perfect as a base for everything from salad dressings and pasta sauces to soy yogurt and even… chocolate cream pie. Yes, you heard correctly – chocolate cream pie for vegans… Does life get any better?

This decadent dessert is deliciously velvety and delightfully rich, yet it contains zero animal products and therefore, absolutely no cholesterol. If you don’t have the time, the patience, or the confidence to make a pie crust from scratch, take a look at your local health food store and you may well find that they sell a pre-made vegan pie crust.
