3-Step, No-Bake, DF Chocolatey Delight

[relizabeth]

I can't believe I didn't find this recipe on GCM. :mrgreen

1. Melt 12 oz. chocolate chips (or your favorite chocolate) on low heat in double boiler or in microwave. Pour in blender.

2. Add one can coconut milk. Blend 1-2 minutes or until smooth.

3. Pour into prepared pie shell of your choice, or into ramekins. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

Extra credit: scrape out the blender and lick the spoon. :yum

[Kyasmom]

I make this a lot! Well, as often as I am willing to plow through a bag of chocolate chips that fast ;) :yum It is so so so delicious. I just pour it into a jar and eat from that... it is seriously so good!!!

[MaybeGracie]

That sounds amazing. :yum

[relizabeth]

It tastes expensive. Like a pricey truffle. :melting

[racheepoo]

Oh MAN! I happen to have a can of coconut milk and 1/2 a bag of ghiradelli chips :nails but no pie shells and I am so not a baker. I wonder if I could pull a crust out in order to try this? :think

[relizabeth]

It doesn't really need a crust! I kinda like it better in little bowls like pudding. You could make a mini one with half the can of coconut milk. If you don't mind opening it for that.

[racheepoo]

I think I can make the sacrifice :shifty

[JJsMom]

:ty Maybe I could make a gf graham cracker crust. :yum

[racheepoo]

So if, when you find chocolate at the store just waiting there for you like it was the last bag of chocolate on earth, and if, when you got home at 9 p.m. and decided you needed to open it, you decided to make a double patch and add a splash of amaretto and then sliced bananas and whipped cream to the 2nd batch? That would be okay. :shifty

[Quiteria]

:jawdrop

[chasingbutterflies]

whoa that sounds so good.

[3PeasInAPod]

what brand of df choc chips do you get?

[Eesti]

I get enjoy life choco chips cause they are gf/df/soy free.

[jojola]

Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

[DancingWithElves]

That would be more than ok. I need to come to your house right now.

[racheepoo]

got a whole pan waiting :shifty if I did that sort of thing.

[WingsOfTheMorning]

This sounds really good! It's similar to my icecream recipe, but I've been kind of wanting something more pudding like lately. This sounds perfect.

[DancingWithElves]

guess what desert #2 is for our thanksgiving feast? :heart :yum

[Mommainrwanda]

Ack! it sounds *too* good. Pleeeaaase someone send me a bag of chocolate chips for Christmas ;)

[graceandmercy]

Sounds super yummy! I can actually do this one for the girls!!!!! :heart

[Marrae]

What size is your can of coconut milk? Ours (400ml) are different from US, I think.

[BeachMama]

oooh like a coconut ganache! I am so going to try this. mmmm

[curlymopmom]

Oh my gosh! I just bought a can of coconut milk because I thought it was something I should have on hand! :jump2 Off I go!

[Iarwain]

Mine says 403 ml.

Too bad I just used up the chocolate chips in cookies. Ghirardelli is the brand for me. The semi-sweet are df.

[relizabeth]

I'm so glad y'all are loving this recipe. I need to make it again soon. :yum

[CakeLady]

OH.MY.GOODNESS

I am going to try this tomorrow. Mind if I share it on my food blog?

What's the consensus? Pie crust or no pie crust? Which way is your fav?

[Proverbs31]

We'll have to try it...dh and the kids love chocolate.

[Blue-EyedLady]

I've made this for DS twice now without the crust. We call it pudding, and he scarfs it down. :yes

Share away. I got it from my mom. I like it better without crust. :yes

Made mine with a chocolate graham cracker crust. :yum Not sure if it's still dairy-free at that point, since it was a store-bought crust and I didn't read the label. :tomato But that's the kind of crust I think would go best...so, for homemade, something like the almond crust Rene just posted, or any kind of df cookie crust...oreo perhaps?

[Blue-EyedLady]

Just thought I should bump this thread to let you know that this recipe makes fabulous pudding pops. :yum

[relizabeth]

I just made this tonight and, while it's cooling and I'm licking my fingers/the bowl/the spatula, thought I'd bump it for the NKOTB. :giggle

I am a NKOTB so thank you for bumping this thread or I would've missed it :smile

Going to buy some ingredients tomorrow when I go shopping

[ilikestrawberryjello]

Is there a difference between canned coconut milk and the half gallon fridgerator kind? I want to try this but I don't have a can of coconut milk.

You do need to use full-fat (not lite) canned coconut milk. :)

[Proverbs31]

I just searched this out again to make for tomorrow's potluck. (Yes, I'm bringing more than dessert...I'll bring pernil too. :yum :melting )

As a public service, I am also bumping this thread for anyone who likes chocolate. :shifty

[relizabeth]

Thanks! I've made this twice in the last month. :yum

:shifty I am constantly bumping my old threads...as a public service to share my wit & wisdom. :giggle

what if lite coconut milk is the only kind that's corn free? any other kind of milk that would work? :shifty

[Proverbs31]

You could try adding some coconut oil to up the fat. It works for me to do that when I add vanilla to the recipe, anyway. :giggle

Not the cheapest price I've seen, though. Sorry.

[momyshaver]

OH. YUM. :heart

[Proverbs31]

:doh forgot one IMPORTANT thing: melt/stir the coconut oil in with the melted chocolate!

[Proverbs31]

YES!!! I'd remembered this from years ago, and finally located the recipe again! Bumping for others who may enjoy it. Dairy-free, nut-free French silk pie in a graham cracker crust, here we come. Happy Pi Day! :D
