This would make a perfect vegan holiday dessert, super easy and sure to impress your guests! They’ll think you slaved all day. I’ve been making this pie for a couple of years now. The recipe is loosely based on a dairy version I used to make at a restaurant I worked in.
Ok lets talk Vegan Chocolate Pie! I like to make my crust first, then the chocolate mousse, and while the mousse is chilling I make the caramel sauce. That’s if I make it the same day. You can make the crust and the caramel a day or two ahead if you wish.

HOW TO MAKE SALTED CARAMEL VEGAN CHOCOLATE PIE (TART):
Let me just say this vegan chocolate nut pie crust is delicious by itself – seriously not kidding! I based my Nutty Vegan Chocolate Truffles Recipe on this crust. That’s how tasty it is!

HOW TO MAKE VEGAN CHOCOLATE NUT PIE CRUST:
Start by processing the nuts in the food processor till they are completely broken down. then add the rest of the pie crust ingredients and process till you have a mealy, nutty mixture. Now spread the nut mixture evenly in the pie plate, and up the sides as well. Start pressing the mixture firmly with your hands, starting on the bottom at the base of the pie plate and then working your way up the sides. This is super easy as there is a generous amount of crust, so you’ll have lots to work with. Chill in the fridge till you’re ready to assemble.

HOW TO MAKE VEGAN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE:
This chocolate mousse is absolutely delicious and so easy! I’ll definitely be creating a separate post for this Easy Vegan Chocolate Mousse Recipe.
Ok start by breaking up the chocolate bars into a medium sized mixing bowl and set aside. Next add coconut milk to a sauce pot and heat until just hot and steaming. Add the coconut milk to the chocolate, add vanilla and stir until chocolate is melted and it’s mixed well. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes, give it a stir with your spatula and return to fridge for another 30 minutes ( 60 minutes total). Now remove from fridge, stir the chocolate mousse with spatula and then beat with electric hand mixer for 2-3 minutes. The mousse should thicken more and hold its shape.

HOW TO MAKE SALTED VEGAN CARAMEL SAUCE:
Add the coconut milk to a medium sized heavy bottomed sauce pot. Bring the sauce to a boil then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently. Scrape down the sides of pot a few times with spatula. remove from heat, add the rest of ingredients. Voila! Best Vegan Caramel Sauce, BOOM!

TO ASSEMBLE THE SALTED CARAMEL VEGAN CHOCOLATE PIE (TART):
Pour the warm caramel on the pie crust and spread evenly. Cool in fridge till chocolate mousse is ready. Then add chocolate mousse to the caramel layer and spread evenly. Place the pie uncovered in the freezer for 30-40 minutes. Slice and Enjoy! YUM😳

Notes

• You might have to warm your caramel sauce before adding to pie crust if it has cooled to much. It will spread much easier
• I recommend the Great Value chocolate bars from Walmart, they are perfect for this recipe and the price is right and the quality is great ( made in Switzerland). Gives the mousse the perfect sweetness.
• If you find the chocolate mousse is ready but the caramel sauce layer is still warm just place mousse in fridge until you’re ready, not to long though, it will start to set.
• More desserts you might like
• Vegan Chocolate truffles
• Best Vegan Brownies
