Steps:
- Place butter and lard in freezer for 15 minutes. When ready to use, remove and cut both into small pieces.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour and salt by pulsing 3 to 4 times. Add butter and pulse 5 to 6 times until texture looks mealy. Add lard and pulse another 3 to 4 times. Remove lid of food processor and spritz surface of mixture thoroughly with water. Replace lid and pulse 5 times. Add more water and pulse again until mixture holds together when squeezed. Place mixture in large zip-top bag, squeeze together until it forms a ball, and then press into a rounded disk and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place 2 metal pie pans in the refrigerator to chill.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. Cut along 2 sides of the plastic bag, open bag to expose dough, and sprinkle both sides with flour. Cover again with plastic and roll out with a rolling pin to a 10 to 11-inch circle. Open plastic again and sprinkle top of dough with flour. Remove pie pans from refrigerator and set first pan on top of dough. Turn everything upside down and peel plastic from bottom of dough. Place second pan upside down on top of dough and flip again. Remove first pan from atop dough. Trim edges if necessary, leaving an edge for meringue to adhere to. Poke holes in dough and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Place a large piece of parchment paper on top of dough and fill with dry beans. Press beans into edges of dough and bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove parchment and beans and continue baking until golden in color, approximately 10 to 15 minutes longer. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack. Let cool completely before filling.
ALTON BROWN'S DAIRY-FREE CHOCOLATE PIE
This recipe is based on one from a Dr. Oz December 2011 episode where Chef Alton Brown was a featured guest. Alton Brown discussed how he lost 50 pounds and has kept the weight off for two years. One of his secrets is recipes like this no-bake, low-calorie chocolate pie. This satisfies your sweet tooth while substituting tofu for dairy products. Alton prefers coffee liqueur, but you can substitute just about any of your favorite liqueurs. Prep and cook times do not include the two hours chill time. This recipe is originally from Alton's book, "Good Eats: The Early Years". I have tweaked this to suit my preferences.

MOO-LESS CHOCOLATE PIE
Steps:
- Place enough water in the bottom of a 4-quart saucepan to come 1 inch up the sides. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Melt the chocolate chips with the liqueur and vanilla in a medium metal bowl set over the simmering water, stirring often with a rubber or silicone spatula. Combine the tofu, chocolate mixture and honey in a blender or food processor and spin until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the filling sets firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spin the cookies and sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs. Then drizzle in the butter, pulsing to combine. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom, up the sides and just over the lip of a 9-inch metal pie pan.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven until crust is set and appears dry, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely, about 1 hour.

Steps:
- 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. Don't pause in this step or it might set up before you finish getting it into the pan! If it does it's okay but it makes it difficult to spread into the pan.
- Note: I have bad luck finding a good prepared chocolate wafer crust so I use a prepared graham cracker crust.
- Optional: Add a dollop of cool whip or dump the whole tub on the cake like a meringue. I think it's too rich this way, my husband loves it.

HEALTHY DARK CHOCOLATE TORTE (PIE)
***Inspired by Alton Brown's Moo-less Chocolate Pie.*** Happy New Year! I am happy to present this decadent and (yes!) healthy recipe for an awesome dessert which I made for Christmas dinner 2011, not knowing what it would taste like. "Oh my!" I would never have guessed it wasn't totally sinful if I didn't already know. You rarely can go wrong w/an Alton Brown recipe, so I knew it'd be good, just not *this* good! Silken tofu: where have you been all my life?!? Note: I have made a few minor adjustments to ingredients and order of incorporation, which worked better for me, and hopefully will for you, too. Prep time includes 2 hours for chilling in the refrigerator post-assembly. (The original recipe can be found here: http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/alton-browns-dairy-free-chocolate-pie)

- Make the pie crust, then bake off fully according to the recipe instructions and allow to cool completely before proceeding.
- Add the chocolate chips, coconut milk and almond butter to a small to medium saucepan. Set the pan over medium-low heat and cook, whisking frequently, until combined and smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and maple syrup.
- Pour the mixture into the cooled pie crust, then transfer to the refrigerator and chill for about 4 to 6 hours, or until set (I usually just leave it to chill overnight).
- Open the can of coconut milk and scoop the hardened coconut cream into a large mixing bowl (leaving behind the liquid – you can save this if desired for things like smoothies). Using a hand mixer, whip the cream until fluffy.
