Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
Filling:
- 1 (12-ounce) package of silken tofu

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

- Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Make the Filling:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted.

- Assemble the Pie:
- Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the pie in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Serve:
