For the crust:

  • 150 g vegan butter melted
  • Pinch of salt

For the pudding filling:

  • 30 g cocoa powder
  • 45 g cornstarch
  • 120 g vegan double cream
  • 240 g vegan semi-sweet baking chocolate chopped
  • 540 ml soy milk
  • 150 g superfine sugar* caster (see notes)
  • 1 Tablespoon salted vegan butter
  • 0.5 teaspoon almond extract
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the chocolate whipped cream:

  • 175 g vegan double cream
  • 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 20 g powdered sugar
  • 0.5 Tablespoon cocoa powder

For the topping:

  • Vegan white chocolate shavings

Instructions

Make the crust:

  • Begin by greasing an 8-inch round springform cake tin or pie plate with vegan butter. Set aside.
  • To a high-speed blender, add your fine Oreos and blitz until fine crumbs form. Add the melted vegan butter and salt then pulse again until fully combined. The mixture should be wet and mouldable.
  • Press the crust mixture into the prepared tin or pie plate. Make sure you press it firmly into both the base and up the sides a little to create a pie crust shape. Place in the freezer while you make the pudding filling.

Make the pudding filling:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder and cornstarch. Mix in the vegan double cream until combined.
  • In a separate, heatproof metal bowl, pour in your chocolate, soy milk and sugar. Place the bowl over a medium heat using the double-boiling (bain-marie) method and stir constantly until it is fully melted together.
  • Remove the pan from the heat then pour 1 cup (236ml) of the melted chocolate milk mixture into the cocoa powder mixture and mix until smooth. Pour the cocoa powder mixture back into the warm chocolate inside the heatproof bowl.
  • Place the bowl over a medium-high heat using the double-boiling method again. Stir continuously once more. When it begins to bubble/boil, cook for a further 3-5 minutes until the chocolate filling has thickened.
  • Finally, remove the pudding filling from the heat and whisk in the vegan butter, almond extract and vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool completely then pour it over the Oreo crust which will have firmed up by this point in the freezer.
  • Cover your chocolate pudding pie with plastic wrap and chill inside the fridge for 6 hours or overnight if you prefer.

Make the chocolate whipped cream:

  • Inside a large mixing bowl, whip the vegan double whipping cream and vanilla extract with an electric hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, beating on a medium-low speed while adding your powdered sugar and cocoa powder in increments.
  • Once the powdered sugar and cocoa powder are fully incorporated into the cream, increase the speed to medium-high and whip until medium-stiff peaks form.
  • Spoon the whipped cream topping onto the set chocolate pudding cake. Grate vegan white chocolate onto the chocolate pie and serve.

Notes

  • Make sure that the superfine/caster sugar that you use is suitable for vegans. You can also substitute for granulated sugar if needed.
  • Using baking-specific dark chocolate is ideal, as it melts smoothly without and clumps. Using higher quality chocolate in general will result in a better texture for the filling.
  • You have to work fast in this recipe at times and you are required to stir regularly at one point, so having all your ingredients measured out and ready to use will be convenient for you.
