Heart and Soy on Bardstown Road

Chocolate Cream Pie

This is truly decadent. It is so easy, and according to the website only has 293 calories per serving.  Mine has less (given the ingredients I used).

1 package silken tofu = 225 calories
1/2 cup cocoa = 80 calories
1 cup sugar = 240
pre-made vegan pie crust = 960
total = 1505 calories

1505 / 8 servings = 188 calories per slice.

Here's the recipe I used. I say ignore the comments about it being "grainy" because that person obviously used firm instead of silken tofu. duh!
