Protein-Packed, Low Sugar, Melt-In-Your-Mouth Chocolate Pie Print 15 LikeDislike By Alivia Duran I came up with this dessert recipe when I was trying to incorporate more soy products, which are rich in phytoestrogens, into my diet. Without an insider tip, you’d never guess the healthy secret in this rich chocolate pie. Organic, non-GMO tofu is a perfect ingredient to work with! Creamy and smooth when blended, tofu is a great substitute for high-calorie ingredients like cream cheese in this type of recipe. Dark chocolate and cocoa powder compliment the nutty flavor of soy, and just a touch of stevia brings a little extra sweetness without adding extra calories.
