Yield 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 13

CRUST
2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
FILLING
1 envelope Knox unflavoured gelatine
1/4 cup cold water
2 cups whipping cream, divided
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
22 caramels (about 1 cup, and Kraft really are the best)
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • CRUST Combine wafer crumbs, pecans and butter. Press into 9-inch pie pan and up sides to form high rim. Bake at 350F for 10 minutes. Cool. FILLING In small saucepan, sprinkle gelatine over water; let stand 1 minute. Stir over low heat until completely dissolved. Stir in 1 cup cream. Bring to boiling point; add to blender with chocolate. Process until chocolate is melted. While processing, add 1/2 cup cream, eggs and vanilla; process until blended. Pour into bowl, chill until thickened, about 15-20 minutes. In small pan, combine caramels, 1/4 cup cream and butter. Simmer, stirring occasionally until caramels are melted. Pour onto crust. Let cool 10 minutes. With whisk or spoon, beat gelatine mixture until smooth. Pour onto crust; chill until firm. Garnish with remaining cream, whipped.

I've made this pie several times and it's always a hit. I like to add a little bit of cayenne pepper to the filling for a little bit of a kick.

I'm not a fan of Ritz crackers, so I used crushed saltines instead. The pie still turned out great.

This Fort Knox Pie was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of the Ritz cracker crust, creamy chicken filling, and cheesy topping was divine. It was easy to make and looked impressive when I brought it out of the oven.
