thing 9: chocolate tart with coconut topping

i’m going to be teaching a vegan cooking class next month, so i was trying to work out some ideas. i am planning to make some kind of chocolate tart. i’ve made a simple chocolate tofu pie before, but i wanted to make it a little more interesting, so i was experimenting on the topping.

i made a standard pie crust. for the filling, i melted a bag of chocolate chips. then i blended a box of firm silken tofu in a food processor, and after it was well blended, added the chocolate and blended some more. then the experimental part.. i heated up a can of coconut milk with some powdered sugar and tapioca powder. i added a little too much tapioca and it got a bit gooey. so i thinned it with soy milk, and then it was too thin. more research will obviously need to be conducted. i suspect i will need tasters..
