Instructions
Crust Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix the ingredients: Place almond flour, cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt in a bowl and mix them until they resemble a crumbly texture.
Press the crust mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie tin.
Bake: Put in oven for 10-12 minutes or until set on the outside but still yielding. Let it cool completely.
Mousse Making
Puree: Combine silken tofu, melted dark chocolate, maple syrup, and vanilla extract into a blender or food processor until smooth.
Raspberry puree is gently folded into the mixture; a little bit of it will be set aside for creating designs.
Assembling Pie
Pour the mousse into the chilled crust, level it with the spatula for an even smoothness.
Chill until Set: Chill minimum of 2-3 hours, or as long as the next day is preferred, firmer.
Final Touch & Serving Now garnish fresh raspberries plus drizzle leftover puree with extra flair over it. And cut into all that decadence!
