What is Chocolate Pot de Crème?
Pot de crème is a French dessert whose name, translated literally, means “pot of cream.” It’s typically a custard-style dessert, requiring a combination of milk, cream, and eggs, that’s cooked and chilled to achieve a thick and luscious result.
Our vegan twist is quick and easy and has a texture that’s similar to the real thing!
How to Make Vegan Pot de Crème
This version starts with blending silken tofu with maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. The vanilla and salt are optional but really step it up a notch!
Then it’s time to add melted dark chocolate…oh yes. Isn’t she dreamy!?
After blending, divide the chocolate pot de crème into the serving jars or glasses of your choice. Okay, bowls work, too, but she’s so pretty in glass. Then it’s chill time for you and the dessert! Take a load off!
Finally, after chilling, it’s time to enjoy! A dollop of coconut whipped cream and a sprinkling of berries are optional, but oh-so elegant. Who’s ready for dessert?!

Cooking method
- To a high-speed blender, add drained silken tofu, maple syrup, vanilla (optional), and salt (optional). Blend until smooth and well combined, about 30 seconds. Set aside.
- Melt the chocolate chips over a double boiler on the stovetop, stirring occasionally, or in the microwave in 30-second increments. Once fully melted, quickly add to the high-speed blender with the tofu mixture and blend until smooth — about 1 minute — scraping down the sides as needed.
- Taste and adjust, adding more maple syrup for sweetness if needed. Divide between individual serving cups or transfer to one large container. Chill (covered or uncovered is fine) for at least 1 hour and up to overnight, until fully chilled and set. To serve, enjoy as is or top with coconut whipped cream and/or fresh berries (both optional).
- Keeps covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. It should also freeze well!
