I made this Vegan French Silk Pie for my family’s Sunday brunch last month. The chocolate filling came out silky, and my book club asked for the recipe.
Delicious Vegan French Silk Pie
The Vegan French Silk Pie consists of a smooth chocolate filling made from silken tofu and dairy-free chocolate, set in a crisp, buttery crust. It takes about 30 minutes of prep time and needs some chilling before serving, making it a fantastic addition to any dessert table.
Ingredients
- 1 pre-baked vegan pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 10 oz dairy-free dark chocolate (chopped)
- 1 package (12 oz) silken tofu, drained
- 1/4 cup maple syrup, adjust to taste
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, optional for sweetness
- Cocoa powder for dusting
- Vegan whipped cream for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave or a double boiler, melt the chopped dairy-free dark chocolate until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
- Blend Filling: In a blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, melted chocolate, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar (if using). Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the chocolate filling into the pre-baked vegan pie crust and spread it evenly.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is set.
- Serve: Once chilled, slice the pie and dust with cocoa powder. Top with vegan whipped cream if desired, and serve immediately.

I store the pie at room temperature for up to two days, or in the fridge for up to four days. The stay silky, and I let slices come to room temperature before serving.
