Steps:
- Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with nonstick spray and line the sides with a strip of parchment paper, trimming it flush with the top of the pan.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cookie crumbs and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Transfer the crumbs to the prepared pan and use the bottom of a measuring cup to press them into an even layer over the bottom of the pan. Set the pan aside while you make the brownie layer.
- Make the brownie layer: In a large glass bowl, combine the chocolate and butter and microwave on high power, 30 seconds or until melted and smooth.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, and eggs until lightened in color and foamy, about 1 minute. Pour in the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth. Add the flour and stir until just combined.
- Pour the batter over the crust in the pan and smooth out the top with a rubber spatula. Bake until a toothpick inserted halfway between the center and the edge comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the pudding layer: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, flour, and salt until combined. Add the egg yolks and a splash of the milk and stir until it the mixture forms a thick, smooth paste. Add the remaining milk and whisk until smooth. Set the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring continuously, until the mixture starts to bubble and thicken, 8-10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, and add the butter and vanilla and stir until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- When the brownie layer is ready, transfer the pan to a wire rack, pour the warm pudding over the brownie layer, and smooth out the top with a rubber spatula. Let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to 1 day.
- When ready to serve, whisk the chilled cream in a medium bowl until it forms stiff peaks.
- Remove the pie from the refrigerator. Remove the outer ring of the springform pan, then peel away and discard the strip of parchment paper and set the pie on a serving plate. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the pie, and dust with additional cocoa powder. Serve the pie chilled.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Chocolate Cookie Crust:Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Lightly spray bottom and sides of a 10-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
- Pulse cookies in a food processor until finely ground (you should have about 3 1/2 cups). Pulse in butter until well combined. Transfer mixture to pan, pressing it evenly into bottom and three-quarters of the way up sides. Freeze 10 minutes. Bake until dry to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
- Flourless Chocolate Cake:Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees. Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of simmering water; stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, whisk together coffee, espresso powder, vanilla, and salt.
- In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar on medium-high speed until pale, thick, and almost doubled in volume, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in chocolate mixture until just combined. Beat in coffee mixture until just combined. Scrape down sides of bowl, then reduce speed to low and beat until evenly incorporated, about 10 seconds.
- In the clean bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to high and gradually add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, beating until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes more. Gently fold 1 cup egg-white mixture into chocolate mixture with a rubber spatula. Fold in remaining egg-white mixture just until combined (do not overmix). Pour into cooled crust.
- Bake until cake is cracked on top and set but still slightly wobbly in center, 40 to 42 minutes (it may not appear completely cooked). Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. Cake will deflate in center as it cools. Wrap tightly in plastic; refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
- Chocolate Pudding:Whisk together sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in egg yolks and milk. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, whisking constantly to prevent scorching. Boil 30 seconds, then remove from heat and whisk in butter, vanilla, and chocolate until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto surface to prevent skin from forming. Let cool to room temperature.
- Pour pudding on top of cake, spreading to edges of cookie-crust border with an offset spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 3 hours.
- Whipped Cream Topping:In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Gradually add sugar; beat until stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes more. Top pudding layer with whipped cream, spreading to edges of pan. Unmold cake. Serve immediately, or refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, up to 2 days.

MISSISSIPPI MUD PIE
Mississippi mud pies come in all shapes and sizes: No two are exactly alike. They can have one layer, or five, and include ice cream or meringue, a flourless cake, nuts, fudge sauce and even brownie. This version, inspired by the towering beauty made by Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito of Baked in Brooklyn and written about in their book, "Baked Explorations," features a graham cracker base, a dense brownie, chocolate custard and whipped cream. Needless to say, a little goes a long way. Share it with 16 to 32 of your closest friends. And a tip for serving: To ensure a clean release, give the underside and sides of the cake pan a 10-second blast with a hairdryer.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 325 degrees. In a food processor, grind the graham crackers to fine crumbs - you should have about 2 1/4 cups crumbs - and tip into a bowl. Add sugar, salt and butter, and toss until evenly moistened. Tip the crumb mixture into a 9-inch springform pan. Use your fingers to press the crumbs into a thin, even layer on the bottom of the pan and at least 2 1/4 inches up its sides. Bake the crust until just set, about 10 minutes. (The crust will continue to cook in the next step.) Increase heat to 350 degrees.
- Prepare the cake: In a bowl set over a pot of barely simmering water but not touching it, melt together the butter and chocolate. (Alternatively, do this in short bursts in the microwave but be careful not to scorch the chocolate.) Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk in the dark brown sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and salt. Let cool slightly, then whisk in the 3 large egg yolks.
- In large bowl, beat the remaining 3 large egg whites with an electric mixer on medium until foamy, about 30 seconds. While mixing, gradually add the granulated sugar in a steady stream. Increase the mixer speed to high and continue to beat until you have stiff peaks, about 3 minutes. Using a large rubber spatula, fold the egg-white mixture evenly into the chocolate mixture. Sift the flour evenly over the chocolate mixture and fold it in. Transfer the batter to the prepared crust and smooth the top. Bake until a crust has formed over the top, the center is just set and a toothpick inserted 1 inch from the edges comes out with moist crumbs attached, 30 to 35 minutes. The center of the cake, under the crust, should still be very moist and fudgy. (Peek under the crust if necessary.) Do not overbake. The cake will sink slightly as it cools. Let the cake cool completely, at least 90 minutes.
- Prepare the custard: Set the chocolate and butter in a medium bowl. Place a fine-mesh sieve over the bowl and set it aside. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, salt, cocoa powder, and cornstarch. Add the milk, little by little, while whisking to incorporate it fully. Whisk in the egg yolks. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened and just come to a low boil. Continue to cook the custard, whisking, for another minute, then immediately pour it into the sieve, pushing it through with a small spatula. Let the custard stand for 1 minute, then whisk it together with the butter and chocolate until smooth. Pour the custard over the cooled cake. Cover the custard with plastic wrap or wax paper, making sure to press it gently into the surface of the custard. Chill until the custard has set completely, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Just before serving, remove the ring from springform pan base and transfer pie to a serving plate. Whip the cream to soft peaks and spoon high dollops over the top of the pie, leaving about a 1-inch border. Dust with cocoa powder.

Steps:
- For the ice cream: Reconstitute several tablespoons of the coffee crystals in very small amount of hot water and allow to cool. Combine the egg yolks and sugar in bowl, and whip until thick and light. Scald milk in saucepan, remove from heat, and gradually beat into egg mixture. Place the custard in top of a large double boiler and heat, stirring, until custard is thickened and smooth.
- Remove from heat and blend in vanilla, salt, heavy cream, and reconstituted coffee crystals to desired coffee flavor intensity. Chill the custard for at least 6 hours or overnight, then freeze in ice cream freezer according to manufacturer's directions. Return to freezer until ready to assemble mud pie.
- While ice cream is freezing prepare Chocolate Brownie: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- In a small bowl mix together the flour and baking soda.
- In a small saucepan combine sugar, water, and butter. Bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla and half the chocolate morsels and mix well until smooth. Cool mixture to room temperature.
- Stir the egg into cooled mixture and beat well. Add the flour mixture and stir to blend. Fold in remaining chocolate chips. Pour into a greased, 9-inch baking pan, round or square. (You may wish to line pan with parchment paper to ease removal, or use a non-stick pan.) Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
- For the Whipped Cream: Combine the cream, sugar and vanilla in a chilled bowl and whip to stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Carefully remove entire brownie from pan onto serving plate. Top with an even, thick layer of ice cream. Top with a layer of whipped cream. Can be refrozen at this point and held for up to 1 week. Serve wedges drizzled with chocolate sauce or fudge and a sprinkle of toasted pecans.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. In a food processor, whizz the biscuits to a fine crumb. Pour in the melted butter and pulse briefly to mix well. Spoon into a 24cm pie dish and press into the base and up the sides. Bake in the oven for 10 mins to firm up.
- To make the brownie layer, melt the butter and chocolate together in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water (making sure that the bottom doesn't touch the water), or in short bursts in the microwave.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until pale, fluffy and doubled in size, then add the sugar and whisk until thickened. Fold in the chocolate mixture, then sieve in the flour and fold in.
- Pour into the baked biscuit case and return to the oven for 15-20 mins until the brownie has a crust on top. Set aside and leave to cool (if the brownie has risen a lot, it should sink down slightly as it cools).
- Once the brownie base is cooled, put the custard, chocolate and vanilla in a pan and cook over a medium heat, stirring, until the chocolate has melted into the custard. Remove from the heat.
- Soak the gelatine in a little cold water and, once softened, remove from the water and squeeze to remove any excess. Stir into the warm custard mixture until dissolved. Let the custard cool slightly, then pour over the brownie layer. Put in the fridge for a few hrs, or overnight, until set.
- Remove the mud pie from the fridge about 30 mins before serving so that it can come to room temperature for easy slicing. Just before serving, whip the cream to soft peaks and spoon it over the custard layer, then grate over some dark chocolate.

Tips:
- Make sure to use a deep-dish pie plate, as the crust will be thick and the filling will be generous.
- If you don't have a chocolate graham cracker crust, you can make your own by crushing chocolate graham crackers and mixing them with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a pie plate and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of semisweet and bittersweet chocolate chips in the filling.
- Don't overcook the pie, or the filling will become dry and crumbly. Bake it until the center is just set, about 30-35 minutes.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to firm up and the flavors to meld.
- To make ahead, bake the pie according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw the pie overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
Conclusion:
Mississippi Mud Pie is a classic Southern dessert that is sure to please everyone. With its rich chocolate flavor, creamy filling, and graham cracker crust, it's the perfect treat for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a dessert that will wow your guests, give Mississippi Mud Pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
