COPYCAT BAKER'S SQUARE FRENCH SILK PIE RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• First off, make the filling first. The filling will be pale in color but will darken as it chills. Put it into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. This allows it to set up and thicken a bit before adding it to the pie shell. Make your pie crust. If making a crust from scratch, follow the instructions for a fully baked pie shell as this pie will not go in the oven. Let it cool completely. Add the chilled filling to the pie crust. Put it back in the fridge while you make the whipped topping. If you are using Cool Whip, go ahead and top the pie now and refrigerate. WAIT until tomorrow to eat. You can certainly eat it after it has chilled for several hours, BUT believe me when I tell you that you will be very thankful that you waited overnight. The filling needs time to set up. Any graininess you may have detected when you tasted the filling will be gone after a good night's rest. The eggs in this recipe are not cooked. If that concerns you, you can use pasteurized eggs.

FRENCH SILK PIE

Steps:

• Place the melted butter in an automatic mixer. I use a Kitchenaid.
• Add the sugar and stir on low.
• Slowly add the chocolate while mixing until it is well blended.
• Pour in your peppermint.
• Add one of the eggs, and change the mixing speed to hi. I go to the highest level on the Kitchenaid. Beat the mixture for 5 minutes.
• Add the second egg. You may want to slow down the mixer to add the egg. Return to hi speed and mix for 5 minutes. Your pie should be a nice light brown color. If not, mix it longer and make sure you are on a really hi speed.
• Turn off the mixer. Pour the mix into the chocolate crust. Place a lid or plastic wrap over the pie.
• Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours.
• Take the lid off the pie. Spread cool whip or whipped cream on the pie. Make chocolate curls with the chocolate bar and a potato peeler. Sprinkle the curls over the cream.
