Magic Pie is a delicious vegan version of the classic French Silk dessert. The smooth and creamy chocolate filling is made from melting vegan chocolate chips and blending them with silken tofu. The result is a luscious, mousse-like pie that's so irresistible, you'll hardly believe it's vegan. The vibrant strawberries and bright glaze make it perfect for a special occasion, or just a delightful dessert after dinner.

Instructions

1.	Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2.	Blend the tofu until it's completely smooth.
3.	Add melted chocolate and vanilla extract to the tofu and blend together.
4.	Pour the mixture into the pre-made graham cracker crust, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
5.	Top the pie with sliced strawberries and the strawberry glaze, and enjoy!

PROS

A vegan chocolate pie that’s ultra-smooth and creamy, yet light and fluffy.

Quick and easy to make, and looks beautiful with the vibrant red strawberries.

Can be enjoyed by people with dairy allergies or those who follow a vegan diet.

CONS

Tofu might not be for everyone, and some people may not like the texture.

Uses pre-made graham cracker crust, which is convenient but doesn’t give the same level of satisfaction as making the crust from scratch.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Since this pie is vegan and made with tofu, it is a healthier option compared to traditional French Silk pies that contain heavy cream and butter.
The soy in the tofu has been associated with many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
