Not only was this raw vegan chocolate pie a hit at a dinner party, but it even passed the five year old kid taste test. Impressive!

Chocolate Filling for Raw Vegan Chocolate Pie Recipe by ireallylikefood.
Ingredients:
- 3 avocados (stay with me here, the outcome is truly delicious!)
- 1/2 cup of agave (1/2 cup maple syrup)
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 Tbsp tahini (aka: sesame butter) (cold pressed coconut butter I had none)
- (3/4 cup raw carob powder I skipped this because I don’t like it)
- 4 Tbsp organic cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional… I added this because i had no coconut butter)
- berries of choice
Directions:
1. Cut your avocados in half
2. Pit your avocados and scoop out the flesh into your food processor along with the vanilla, tahini, shredded coconut and agave. Blend away (a blender also works for this)
3. Once it is nicely blended add in your cocoa powder and blend.
4. Fill in your pie crust and top with berries
Glamour published this great raw, vegan chocolate mousse recipe made with cacao powder and avocado, and sweetened with dates and agave nectar. This recipe shows there’s so much more to avocados than guacamole! If you like this, you may enjoy this as frosting for a vegan cake. It looks simple and fabulous.
