If you’re looking for an easy no-bake dessert, look no further! A chocolate cookie crust, rich dairy chocolate, and fresh raspberries make this dessert both delicious and beautiful! This is a simple dairy free, gluten free treat to make for your next party.
Whatever the season, sometimes it’s hard to fit in time to bake. During the holidays, it can be hectic. And in the summer months, it can be too hot to bake a delicious dessert.
Whenever I can do a quick and easy no-bake dessert, that’s a win! And if it’s made of easy to find, allergy friendly ingredients – that’s even better.
If you’re feeling the stress of too many things to do and not enough time, this dessert is for you.
You can whip up these little chocolate raspberry pies in about 20 minutes, with just 5 or so minutes of active time.
Ingredient Notes
- Allergy Friendly Cookies – The base of these chocolate raspberry pies is a simple crust made with cookie crumbs and vegan buttery spread. You can use any cookie that you like – chocolate sandwich cookies like K-Toos from Kinnikinnick or crunchy Partake cookies would work. If you can’t find a store bought cookie that works for your needs, you can make your own chocolate sugar cookies.
- Allergy Friendly Chocolate Chips – I used Enjoy Life Dairy Free Dark Chocolate Chips. You can use any chocolate chips or chocolate bars that work for your dietary needs.
Substitutions
- Try chopped strawberries, dried fruits, or pumpkin seeds instead of raspberries if you prefer!
- You can use any type of cookie that works for your dietary needs. There are allergy friendly sugar cookies, gluten free graham crackers, vanilla wafers, chocolate sandwich cookies, and more options you could try.
- If you choose to do a vanilla cookie crust, feel free to try white chocolate chips instead of dark chocolate chips.
- If you want to leave the berries off of these tarts, another option would be to top them with a dollop of allergy friendly whipped cream or a swirl of sunbutter.
Step by Step Instructions
- Give the cookies a whirl in the food processor with the buttery spread, and press the crumbs into cupcake liners. Top with melted allergy friendly chocolate.
- Place fresh raspberries on top of the melted chocolate. Put the tarts in the freezer for about 15 minutes so that the chocolate firms up.
- Take them out of the freezer and give them a quick dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
