Bad Grrl Chocolate Silk Pie


11.5 oz or semi sweet chocolate chips or equivalent semi sweet chocolate
1/2 cup margarine
1 1/2 tbsp vanilla
1 cup raw sugar
8 oz firm tofu (preferably silken, but it MUST also state that it is "FIRM!)
Store bought pie shell, prepared according to directions.
Optional: Berries, mint or other fancy things for garnish

Melt margarine, chocolate chips and vanilla on a double boiler* over low heat, do not stir together until chocolate is entirely melted, doing so will evaporate the delicious coco oil found in the chocolate and the result will be a dryer pie. Scrape out the melted mixture of chocolate and yumminess into a blender and blend with the remaining ingrediants until ultra creamy smooth. You should absoloutly not see any white bits of tofu.

Use a spatula to pour into pie shell. Bake for 15 minutes and chill overnight before serving.

*If you don't have a double boiler you can slowly heat up the aforementioned ingredients in a glass or ceramic bowl on low heat inside a larger pan with a little water in the in the bottom of it. Essentially you just need steam to melt the stuff together.
