It’s not always easy to create a chocolate treat without using milk, but leave it to Alton Brown to find a way! The flickr user who took the picture above decorated hers with crushed cookies, melted chocolate and chocolate-covered espresso beans. Yum!

Alton’s Moo-Free Chocolate Pie

2 cups chocolate chips,
1/3 cup coffee liqueur
1 block silken tofu
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon honey
1 prepared chocolate wafer crust

Place a small metal bowl over a saucepan with simmering water. Melt the chocolate and coffee liqueur in the bowl. Stir in vanilla.

Combine the tofu, chocolate mixture, and honey in the blender jar. Liquefy until smooth.

Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the filling is set.

Heather R. — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 15:23:23 +0000

Harry and David are voluntarily recalling 66,500 8 oz. bags of their Covered Select Blend Espresso Beans because they may contain milk not declared on the ingredient label.

The bags affected have “Best if used by” dates after 8/28/05, sold prior to April 5th, 2008. Bags subject to this recall do NOT have a “Contains milk, soy” statement on the nutrition label and are packaged in 8 oz. clear plastic bags, tied at the top with a tan ribbon.

Consumers with product can return it to any Harry and David retail store for a full refund.
