    I'll agree with some other reviewers that it came out a bit bitter, but I am fine with it because of the richness of the pie. I used your average semi-sweet chocolate chips, and substituted the honey with agave nectar (because my honey crystalized. I love this pie, and even my 6 year old brother likes it (I thought he wouldn't because it isn't super sweet. I will definitely make this again!

    This pie was to die for! I made it for Easter and everyone loved it, even the people that were not big chocolate fans. I did was some other reviewers said and used half Giradhelli bittersweet chip and half milk chocolate. I don't think it would have been good at all if I'd only used the bittersweet. It was so easy and delicious!

    The texture of it reminded me of the whipped yoplait yogurt, but creamier : If you're a chocolate lover like I am, you must try this. It was real easy and fast to make, the only hard part was having to wait for it to cool for 2 hours. Next time I make it I will try making my own crust because I don't think the store bought ones' do it justice. This is definitely going into my favorites, thanks for the good eats Alton :

    i gave it 4 because i think it has potential. We would have never known it was made with tofu if I hadn't seen the recipe. Our issue though was that the liqueur was very strong. We used milk chocolate chips and kahlua based on the reviews here & what we had on hand. It came out very light, almost like a mousse rather than the 'rich' that others described. The BIG issue, however, was that kahlua was overpowering. After a day in the fridge (& with a couple of pieces cut out, there was actually liqueur visible in the empty space in the pan.
    Any suggestions as to what may have gone wrong? We followed the directions except that we had to use a glass bowl for the melting. I think our tofu was about 14 oz though (started at 16 but lost a bit in assembly but if anything, i would think that would make it less likely to taste the liqueur. We've always had luck with Alton's recipes so i'm surprised.

    I made three of these pies to send to people for thanksgivings I was invited to and couldn't attend. I used the light tofu, in firm and extra firm variations, and they all turned out AMAZING!! I got rave reviews and lots of thank-you's! I think all three pies took me about thirty min total to make. Now I just keep the supplies in my pantry and whenever I get a last minute invite or a late night chocolate craving!
    IT IS SOOO GOOD!

    This chocolate pie is always a hit. I love it and it's very easy to make. Before it is chilled, it may taste a little bitter, but once chilled, it is just right.

    I first made this with semi-sweet chips and it was too bitter. The second time I made it with milk chocolate and it was much better! Both times I used a regular pastry crust. Next time I will try with the wafer crust. Really easy, and tasty recipe for good chocolate pie!!

    I made this with a ground-nut crust for a gluten-free friend and it was amazing! (Nut crust: just grind 2 cups pecans/almonds/walnuts in a food processor with 2T butter, 1T sweetener, 1/2tsp salt. I thought the coffee liquer would be too strong but it turned out to have just the perfect flavor; I think the alcohol gave it a cooler, lighter taste. Next time I'm going to try it with white chocolate chips and white chocolate liquer! Can't wait!

    One beef: this shouldn't really be called "moo-less" unless you use dairy-free chocolate chips. But I'm sure it's great either way!
