BROWNIE BOTTOM CHOCOLATE PUDDING PIE

Homemade pudding and whipped cream take this chocolate pie over the top!

Provided by Mamma C

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
3 Tablespoons cocoa powder ((unsweetened))
3 Tablespoons corn starch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream
3 egg yolks ((I use extra large.))
2 1/2 cups 2% milk ((or whole milk))
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
4 Tablespoons salted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 eggs ((I use extra large.))
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
2 Tablespoons confectioners sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 square of semi-sweet chocolate to make curls

Steps:

  • Make the pudding first, since it will need to chill for up to three hours. Chop the bittersweet chocolate into fine flakes with a serrated knife.
  • In a large, heat-proof bowl, whisk together the cocoa, corn starch and salt. Gradually add the cream, whisking as you go until it's smooth. Whisk in the egg yolks.
  • In a 3-quart or larger saucepan, add the milk. Stir in the brown sugar and warm it over medium heat. Bring the pot to a simmer. You will see tiny bubbles covering the surface of the liquid.
  • When it has reached a simmer, pour most of the hot liquid into your bowl with the cocoa and corn starch mixture. Whisk until it is blended well. This will temper the eggs, so they don't scramble.
  • Pour everything from your bowl back into the pot and increase the heat to medium high. Whisk constantly as you bring the pot to a full boil. The pudding will be thicker.
  • Cook the boiling pudding for two minutes, whisking constantly and vigorously, making sure to reach the corners of your pot.
  • Remove the pudding from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Add the chopped chocolate and whisk the pudding well until the chocolate is blended.
  • To chill the hot pudding more quickly, spread it evenly onto a sheet pan with sides. Cover the entire surface of the pudding with wax paper, pressing it onto the pudding to prevent skin from forming. Let the pudding cool off for a bit in the pan before refrigerating it for three hours. (You can check it after 1 1/2 hours to see if it's ready.)
  • While the pudding is chilling, make the brownie crust. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch or 10-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter. (The 9-inch pie dish will give you a taller pie, which looks nicer.)
  • In a glass bowl or other microwaveable bowl, add the 4 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate and the butter. Heat this, covered, in the microwave for 1 minute and 50 seconds, or until the butter is melted. Stir to combine.
  • Whisk in the sugar and salt. Then whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Finally, whisk in the flour.
  • Transfer the brownie batter to your pie dish and bake it for 20 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center of the brownie comes out with fudgy crumbs. Don't over bake it. Let the brownie crust cool on a wire rack.
  • To make the whipped cream, beat the whipping cream and confectioners sugar with a mixer in a clean, medium stainless steel or glass bowl, until the cream is about half way to being stiff. Add in the vanilla extract and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate the whipped cream until the pudding is chilled enough to assemble the pie.
  • To assemble the pie, make sure the brownie crust is at room temperature. Add the chilled pudding on top of the brownie crust. Top the pudding with the whipped cream.
  • To make chocolate curls or flakes for the garnish, use a vegetable peeler to peel along a straight edge of your chocolate square. Make as many curls/flakes as you wish and scatter them on top of the pie.
  • Refrigerate the pie for at least an hour before serving, to allow it to set. Then store the pie in the refrigerator for up to three days, covered with a domed bowl or domed foil so that it doesn't touch the whipped cream topping. I don't recommend freezing this pie.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 4h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

13 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
9 ounces peanut butter sandwich cookies, such as Nutter Butter
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
4 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter chips, plus more for garnish
One 8-ounce block cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup marshmallow creme
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips, plus more for garnish
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup sugar

Steps:

  • For the brownie: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate with 1 tablespoon butter, then dust with flour. Tap out any excess.
  • Microwave 4 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until melted, about 1 minute. Add the peanut butter cookies to the bowl of a food processor and process until fine crumbs have formed. Pour in the melted butter and pulse until the cookies are wet like sand. Press the cookie crumbs into the bottom and completely up the sides of the prepared pie plate.
  • Whisk the flour, cocoa powder and salt in a medium bowl. Melt the semisweet chocolate and the remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning, about 2 minutes. Stir in the eggs and sugar until well combined. Gently fold in the flour mixture until well combined. Fold in the peanut butter chips. Pour the batter in the cookie crust and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • For the peanut butter cream: Meanwhile, place the cream cheese, peanut butter and marshmallow creme in a medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the heavy cream to a separate medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, then fold in the mini chocolate chips. Spread the mixture on the top of the pie and chill until completely set, about 2 hours.
  • For the whipped topping: Meanwhile, whisk the cream cheese, heavy cream and sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Mound the whipped topping on top of the pie and sprinkle with more mini chocolate chips and peanut butter chocolate chips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of the show in a brownie bottom pie, so it's important to use the best quality chocolate you can find. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until they are just set: The brownies should be slightly gooey in the center. If you overbake them, they will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before assembling the pie: This will help to prevent the brownies from cracking.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Brownie bottom pies are a great way to use up leftover ice cream, whipped cream, and fruit. You can also add nuts, chocolate chips, or caramel sauce.

Brownie bottom pies are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make a brownie bottom pie that will impress your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
