Categories     dessert

Time 2h55m

Yield 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 graham crackers (the 4-section large pieces)
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup sugar
4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, softened but still cold
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 eggs, cold
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Piece of semisweet chocolate, for grating

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Crush the crackers in a food processor or resealable bag. Pour them into a bowl and stir in the melted butter and sugar. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
  • For the filling: In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the baking chocolate until stirrable (about 45 seconds on high). Set aside to cool.
  • It is important for the bowl and ingredients to be cold for the next stage of making the filling--to get the right texture and result. In a large chilled bowl with an electric mixer, beat the sugar and butter until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • When the melted chocolate is cooled, drizzle it over the butter/sugar mixture. Add the vanilla extract. Beat the mixture thoroughly until combined (on a stand mixer, you will be using the whisk attachment).
  • Turn your mixer to a medium speed and over a period of 15 to 20 minutes, add in the 4 cold eggs, one at a time, leaving about 5 minutes between each egg addition. Once the pie filling is well mixed, pour it into the baked pie shell, scraping every last speck of it out of the bowl. Smooth out the pie filling and place the pie in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours (preferably longer).
  • For the topping: Add the heavy cream and sugar to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whip until it is stiff. Cover the pies with a thick layer of cream. Grate the semisweet chocolate over the top.

FRENCH SILK PIE



French Silk Pie image

Delicious, creamy, and decadent French silk pie! This recipe is unique since it requires the eggs to be cooked rather than a traditional French silk pie recipe that uses raw eggs. To make things easier, use a frozen store-bought deep-dish pie crust! Garnish with fresh whipped cream and chocolate curls. Cover remaining pie with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Time 2h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 egg, beaten
1 (9 inch) frozen deep-dish pie crust, thawed
⅔ cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
⅓ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Brush beaten egg over all surfaces of pie crust, including edges. Prick holes into the bottom and sides of the crust using a fork.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Combine sugar and 2 eggs in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir continuously, adjusting heat as needed to make sure mixture does not boil or bubble, until it coats the back of a spoon and an instant-read thermometer reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 10 minutes.
  • Remove mixture from heat and stir in melted chocolate and vanilla extract; allow to cool to lukewarm temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Beat butter in a separate large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add chocolate mixture and continue to beat on high speed until thick and creamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Beat cold heavy cream in a separate bowl until slightly thick. Add powdered sugar all at once and continue to beat on medium to medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold into chocolate mixture, stirring very gently as to not decrease the volume by stirring too much. Pour into the prepared pie crust and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Tips:

  • For the perfect graham cracker crust, use a combination of graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and a touch of sugar. Press the mixture firmly into the pie plate and chill it before filling.
  • When making the creamy filling, ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature. This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients.
  • Use a high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor. Chop it into small pieces before melting it so that it melts evenly.
  • When adding the whipped cream, fold it gently into the filling until it is just combined. Over-mixing will cause the whipped cream to deflate.
  • Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

The Shamrock Silk Pie is a delightful and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, chocolate ganache topping, and festive green color, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, give this recipe a try and enjoy the delicious results.
