Chocolate Mousse Pie - EASY and QUICK!

This mousse pie is no-bake, quick and easy. All you need is a food processor! Super rich and perfect for entertaining.

Chocolate Mousse Pie

Ingredients:
-400 g silken tofu (about 1 2/3 cups)
-1 tsp. cocoa powder
-1 tsp. vanilla
-2 tbsp. soy or oat milk
-1/4 tsp. salt
-2 tbsp. coconut cream
-300 g dark chocolate chips (about 1 1/4 cups)
-2 tbsp. agave or maple syrup
-premade graham cracker pie crust

Method:
Preheat oven to 350F. Once hot, insert the crust for about 5-7 minutes just to give it a little golden color. Remove it, and turn off the oven.

In a glass bowl in a microwave set to a medium setting, melt the chocolate chips and the soy/oat milk together. Stir it often, and keep it up til completely melted.

Meanwhile, blend the tofu, cocoa powder, vanilla, salt, agave/maple syrup and coconut cream in a food processor until very smooth. Add in the melted chocolate and blend completely. No such thing as over-blending here!

Pour the mixture into the pie crust and place in the refrigerator for at least 90 minutes. Serve either cold or at room temperature (after chilling). Would be delicious with a berry compote or drizzle!

 

Onion Jam

This onion compote is delicious and super easy to make. Also makes your house smell great! It's great on toast, or on top of a bean spread, or piled into endive leaves. Enjoy!

Onion Jam

Ingredients:
-1 tbsp. olive oil
-1 lb. onions (I mixed red, yellow, and shallots), all sliced thinly
 -2 tbsp. brown sugar

-2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
-1/3 cup dry red wine
-1/8 cup water
-salt and pepper

Method:
In a large skillet over medium, heat the oil. Once hot, add onions and saute for 5-8 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes (stirring often) until the onions are slightly brown.

Add the sugar and stir until it's dissolved. Add the vinegar and bring to a boil, stirring. Add wine and continue to boil and stir. Add the water and cook, uncovered, until most of the liquid has evaporated and it's become thick (about 5 minutes), continuing to stir. Taste and see if you like more salt and pepper, then put in a jar and let it cool. Store in refrigerator.
