Vegan Chocolate Silk Pie

Here’s a recipe that is sure to impress!  A no-bake chocolate cookie crust filled with super easy, super rich and delicious chocolate mousse.

The secret is buying the best darn vegan-friendly chocolate you can afford! This is a dessert I pull out every so often for a special occasion or to share with non-vegans who doubt whether a non-dairy dessert can measure up to what they are used to.

Personally, I never truly appreciated chocolate until I enjoyed it without dairy and additives and the other junk it is often processed with.
