Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For crust
1 1/2 cups finely ground or crushed chocolate wafer cookies (about 7 ounces)
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For bittersweet chocolate sauce
3/4 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
8 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pints chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream
1 pint chocolate fudge brownie ice cream
1 pint cookies-and-cream ice cream
2 ounces good-quality white chocolate (such as Lindt or Baker's), chopped

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter metal pie pan or glass pie dish. Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter in bowl until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom and up sides of prepared pan. Bake until crust is set, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Make bittersweet chocolate sauce:
  • Combine cream, butter, and corn syrup in medium saucepan. Bring to simmer. Remove from heat. Add bittersweet chocolate; let stand 1 minute. Whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla. Let stand at room temperature until cool and slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Place alternate scoops of chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream, chocolate fudge brownie ice cream, and cookies-and-cream ice cream in single layer in cooled crust. Drizzle 1/2 cup chocolate sauce over ice cream. Freeze pie until sauce sets, about 10 minutes. Top pie with scoops of remaining ice cream, alternating flavors and mounding in center. Drizzle 1/3 cup sauce over. Freeze pie until firm, at least 2 hours. (Can be prepared 5 days ahead. Cover tightly and keep frozen. Cover and refrigerate remaining chocolate sauce.)
  • Stir white chocolate in top of double boiler set over barely simmering water just until melted and smooth. Using small spoon, drizzle white chocolate in thin lines over ice cream pie. Freeze until white chocolate is firm, about 10 minutes. Stir bittersweet chocolate sauce over low heat just until warm. Serve pie with warm chocolate sauce.

CHEF JOHN'S CHOCOLATE DECADENCE



Chef John's Chocolate Decadence image

This 'flourless' chocolate cake was all the rage in the 1980s. As I vaguely remember, the decade celebrated decadent overindulgence and this dessert is that and more. By modern standards, this cake is ridiculously rich. In fact, some of you may find it too intense, but most true chocolate fiends will be in heaven. Serve with ice-cold fresh raspberry sauce.

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

18 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
10 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 large eggs, at room temperature
4 teaspoons white sugar
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Butter and flour a 9-inch cake pan.
  • Melt semisweet chocolate and unsalted butter together in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula, until chocolate and butter are completely melted and combined. Remove from heat.
  • Beat eggs and sugar together in a bowl with a whisk or an electric mixer until pale and very thick, 5 to 10 minutes. Sift in flour, cayenne, and salt; whisk to combine.
  • Pour 1/4 of the egg mixture into chocolate mixture; stir to combine. Pour chocolate mixture into remaining egg mixture and stir until cake batter is combined. Pour batter into prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until just barely set, with a jiggle below the surface, 14 to 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature, wrap in aluminum foil, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Holiday Cake Recipes

Time 4h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
5 tablespoons butter, room temperature
2 eggs, room temperature
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Butter six ramekins or custard cups. Melt chocolate and butter slowly: You can do this in a double boiler, over, not in, simmering water, or in microwave, stirring to prevent scorching. Stir until completely smooth.
  • In a medium bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer until frothy, about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir vanilla and salt gently into beaten eggs. Fold half of egg mixture into chocolate mixture, mix well. Then fold remainder of egg mixture into chocolate mixture. Pour chocolate and egg mixture into prepared ramekins.
  • Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place ramekins on towel, inside roasting pan. Butter a piece of foil big enough to cover entire pan, and cover the ramekins, buttered side down. Place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake 5 minutes, then remove foil and bake 10 minutes more. Remove ramekins from water carefully. Let cool on wire rack for at least 3 hours. Cakes will firm up as they cool. Unmold each room-temperature ramekin onto a dessert plate, garnish and serve. Refrigerate unused portions.
