Chocolate Cream Pie
July 28, 2010
In the summer, it’s too hot to heat up the kitchen by turning on the oven and baking. I like to make non-baked desserts that are cool, refreshing and of course, chocolate.
Here is one recipe that is perfect and uses ingredients that I already have on hand...
Chocolate Cream Pie 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate pieces 1/3 cup milk 2 tbs. sugar 4 ounces cream cheese, softened 1 cup whipping cream 1 baked pie crust Beat together cream cheese and sugar; set aside. Heat chocolate and milk over low heat, stirring until melted; remove from heat. In a separate bowl, whip cream until soft mounds hold their shape. (You can substitute a cup of whipped topping for the whipping cream if you prefer.) Beat in cream cheese mixture only until blended. Beat in chocolate mixture just until color is uniform. Turn into 9-inch baked pie shell (graham cracker, pastry, or crème de menthe). Chill at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with shaved chocolate if desired. |
I prefer to make a graham cracker crust because I keep lots of graham crackers around in the summer for making s’mores.
I like to garnish with mini chocolate chips.
Enjoy!
