Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the pie will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Make sure the cream is cold. Cold cream will whip up better and will help to stabilize the pie filling.
- Don't overbeat the cream. Overbeaten cream will become grainy and will not hold its shape.
- Chill the pie before serving. This will help the pie to set and will make it easier to slice.
- Serve the pie with fresh mint. Mint is a classic pairing for chocolate and will help to brighten up the flavor of the pie.
