DOUBLE CHOCOLATE PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 5h15m

Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 16

9 whole chocolate graham crackers
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cups whole milk
4 large egg yolks, beaten
6 1/2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, broken into pieces
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
2 pinches kosher salt
2 large egg whites
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the crust: Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor or crush in a resealable plastic bag until they are fine crumbs. Add the crumbs to a bowl and stir in the melted butter and sugar. Press the mixture into a pie pan and bake until set, about 4 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool completely.
  • For the filling: Stir together the cornstarch, sugar and salt in a large saucepan over medium heat. Pour in the milk and beaten egg yolks. Cook, stirring, until the mixture comes to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate, butter and vanilla. Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled shell until it's filled to the brim. (You may have some left over.) Smooth the top of the pie, then gently press a piece of wax paper over the filling and chill until set, 3 to 4 hours. Store any leftover filling covered in the fridge for another use or snacking.
  • For the meringue: Add the sugar, corn syrup, 2 tablespoons water and a pinch of salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved completely. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the egg whites to the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat the egg whites on medium speed until frothy, about 1 minute. Add the cream of tartar and the remaining pinch salt and continue beating for 30 seconds. With the machine running on medium speed, drizzle the hot syrup mixture into the mixing bowl in a constant stream, then turn the speed to high and whip until the mixture forms stiff peaks (about 3 minutes).
  • Remove the chilled pie from the fridge and discard the wax paper. Spread the meringue over the top of the chilled pie, making sure to get it to the edges. With the back of a spoon, lightly press into the meringue, lifting the spoon away, to create peaks. Toast the meringue with a brulee torch to the desired color. Slice and serve.

CHOCOLATE SWISS MERINGUE BUTTERCREAM



Chocolate Swiss Meringue Buttercream image

There's buttercream, and then there's Chocolate Swiss Meringue Buttercream. Satiny smooth, rich and deeply chocolaty, this frosting will take your cake and cupcakes to a whole new level. For these spectacular results though, some time and effort is required-but no guesswork! The Betty Crocker Kitchens have laid out precise instructions and tips, so you'll know exactly what to expect-even in the case of the unexpected, check out our Expert Tips for more. Before you dig in, here's what to keep in mind. This frosting is called Swiss meringue buttercream, because you make Swiss meringue first, which means cooking egg whites and sugar over a pan of simmering water in a double boiler (to avoid burning) until mixture reaches 160°F (for food safety reasons), and then whipping egg white-sugar mixture into stiff, glossy peaks. With your Swiss meringue made, the next step is to begin adding softened butter, one piece at a time. Adding the butter slowly is key, because you are blending two mixtures that wouldn't normally mix. To pull it off successfully, have patience. Your frosting will simply look like soupy meringue until nearly the last piece of butter is blended, so keep the faith, follow the directions and keep beating. Once you've incorporated the butter with the meringue, it's easy to stir in the cooled, melted chocolate.

6 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups butter, softened and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 teaspoons vanilla

If mixture separates, beat until smooth.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the meringues will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Whip the egg whites until they are stiff peaks. This will help the meringues hold their shape.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the meringues tough.
  • Bake the meringues at a low temperature. This will help them dry out slowly and prevent them from cracking.
  • Let the meringues cool completely before serving. This will help them set and become crispy.

Conclusion:

Double chocolate meringues are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create these light and airy cookies that are perfect for any occasion.
