CHOCOLATE FRENCH SILK PIE (COPYCAT BAKERS SQUARE'S FRENCH SILK)



Chocolate French Silk Pie (Copycat Bakers Square's French Silk) image

My b/f loooooooves Bakers Square French Silk pie. However, the chain has closed all of its stores in Southern California. A few Valentines days ago I tried the recipe that calls for Knox Gelatin and buttermilk - that was a disaster. This recipe which I found on bigoven.com is the closest to perfection as I have been able to find. Making sure everything is well mixed is the secret to a nice high fuffy pie.

SARAH'S SECRET CHOCOLATE SILK PIE (EASY)



Sarah's Secret Chocolate Silk Pie (Easy) image

For many years I kept the basic ingredient of this pie a secret, and for many years people wondered what was in it. Cream? Butter? Both? Well, for many years no one knew is that the main ingredient (besides chocolate, of course) is tofu! Why tofu? Not to be healthy or because I had anything against dairy, but because it's just easy. Why didn't I tell people? Because many of my picky-eater relatives wouldn't have eaten it if they'd known it was tofu. Finally, one day, after everyone had enjoyed a piece of pie, I let the secret out... but you don't have to. Make this pie, and let everyone think you spent more time making it out of cream and butter. One note: be sure to use silken tofu, not the meatier, textured tofu. Make sure it says "silken" on the box.

Time 15m

Yield 8 slices, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
12 ounces silken tofu (firm or extra firm)
1 dash vanilla extract
1 prepared pie crust (graham cracker, Oreo or shortbread)

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate chips however you like to melt them. I heat them in a non-stick skillet over a low-heat burner, stirring often and keeping a close eye so to remove them when just melted.
  • Combine tofu and vanilla in a food processor. While processing, add the melted chocolate slowly. Process until well combined.
  • Spoon into the pie crust. Chill in the refrigerator for a couple hours until the pie has solidified. Served chilled.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your pie. Look for a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao and has a smooth, rich flavor.
  • Temper your chocolate: Tempering chocolate is a process of heating and cooling it in a specific way to stabilize it and give it a glossy finish. This step is essential for a silky smooth pie filling.
  • Use fresh cream: Fresh cream will give your pie a richer, more luxurious flavor than milk or evaporated milk.
  • Don't overmix the filling: Overmixing the filling will make it dense and tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the pie before serving: Chilling the pie before serving will help it set and firm up. This will also make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Chocolate silk pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is rich, decadent, and oh-so-delicious. With a few simple tips, you can make a chocolate silk pie that will impress your friends and family. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try.
