How to make Dairy-Free Chocolate Pie
Prepare the Pie Crust
Have your prebaked pie crust ready before making the filling, so it has a bit of time to cool first. If using a store-bought one, bake according to the package directions.
Make the Filling
Add the chocolate chips and coconut milk to a large bowl. Melt in the microwave for 30 seconds, stir and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring in between each, until it is about 90% melted.
Whisk until completely smooth and melted and pour into a blender or food processor.
Add the cashew butter, cocoa powder, vanilla, espresso (if using), and salt to the blender of chocolate.
Blend until fully smooth and pour over the prebaked pie crust.
Chill the Pie
Place in the freezer for 1 hour to do a quick set and then transfer to the fridge to chill completely and firm up for several hours or overnight for the best set texture.
If you don’t have room in your freezer, just place it in the fridge overnight.
Serve
Once ready to serve, garnish with non-dairy whipped cream. Use a sharp knife to carefully cut each slice and serve immediately.
Tips & Tricks
This pie will become firm and fudge-like in the fridge. Take it out an hour or so before serving to soften.
Store any leftovers in the fridge. Cover the pie with a flipped-over large plate instead of foil to avoid messing up the topping.
