That pie right there is my idea of heaven! I am a huge chocoholic so when I am creating a holiday menu, I always try to add a little of the good stuff to the mix to appeal to the other chocolate fans on my guest list.
For whatever reason, I was always intimidated by a chocolate silk pie. For some reason, I had always believed that it was a difficult pie to make. That is completely untrue! In fact, this chocolate silk pie is incredibly simple to make. You end up with a rich, smooth, creamy and oh so chocolatey pie that tastes as good as it looks. The best part? No one would ever know that it contains 28% fewer calories* and 63% less sugar* than the regular sugar-sweetened version!
Yep, this pie is made with Truvia® Cane Sugar Blend, a sweet mix of stevia sweetener and sugar that bakes and browns just like sugar, with 75% fewer calories per serving than sugar. It’s the natural choice for people looking to reduce calories, including people with diabetes and those looking to reduce sugar in their diets. It’s easy to use and is a fabulous product to have on hand this holiday season!
Truvia® Cane Sugar Blend is perfect for all your holiday recipes! Simply replace 1 cup of sugar with a ½ cup of Truvia® Cane Sugar Blend in your favorite recipes to get the same sweetness with 75% fewer calories!
