Number Of Ingredients 11

All-purpose flour, for surface
1/2 recipe Pate Brisee for Chocolate-Caramel Cream Pie

  • Whisk yolks in a medium bowl until combined. Pour in 1 cup milk mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking until completely incorporated. Return mixture to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it just begins to bubble, 1 to 2 minutes.

CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL CREAM PIE



Chocolate-Caramel Cream Pie image

Chocolate-covered caramels inspired this rich, silken pudding and its whipped cream topping that's suffused with caramel.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

All-purpose flour, for surface
Easy Chocolate Pate Sucree
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups whole milk
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate (preferably 61 percent to 70 percent cacao), finely chopped
4 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Caramel Whipped Cream for Chocolate-Caramel Cream Pie
1 thick block bittersweet chocolate, room temperature, for garnish

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll pate sucree to 1/8-inch thickness. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under dough so edges are flush with rim, and crimp edges. Lightly prick bottom of dough with a fork. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line dough with parchment, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges begin to look dry, 20 to 22 minutes. Carefully remove weights and parchment. Bake until crust is darker around edges and bottom looks dry, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. (Chocolate crust can be stored overnight.)
  • Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl. Heat milk and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until chocolate melts.
  • Whisk 1 cup hot milk mixture into sugar mixture until smooth. Whisk milk-sugar mixture into the remaining milk mixture in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until bubbling and thick, 4 to 5 minutes total (about 2 minutes after it comes to a boil).
  • Whisk yolks in a medium bowl until combined. Pour in milk mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking until completely incorporated. Return mixture to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it just begins to bubble, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla. Let custard cool in saucepan on a wire rack, whisking occasionally, for about 10 minutes.
  • Pour custard into chocolate crust. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of custard. Refrigerate until custard filling is chilled and firm, at least 4 hours (or overnight).
  • Spread caramel whipped cream over pie. Using a vegetable peeler, scrape chocolate block at a 45-degree angle to make a small mound of shavings, and sprinkle over whipped cream. Serve immediately, or refrigerate and serve within 2 hours.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the pie will taste. Use real butter, semisweet chocolate, and pure vanilla extract.
  • Make sure the butter and cream cheese are softened to room temperature before using. This will help them cream together smoothly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie until the center is set. The pie is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the pie set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This chocolate caramel crunch pie is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor, gooey caramel filling, and crispy graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit. Follow these tips to make the best chocolate caramel crunch pie possible.
