Frozen Chocolate Pie image

Extraordinarily rich and decadent, this pie is a chocolate lover's dream. Like many of my favorite recipes, it is from the Betty Crocker Recipe Card Library. You can use a traditional, graham cracker or cookie crumb pie crust, but my favorite is a chocolate cookie crumb crust (that I will sometimes mix with some very well-dried and finely chopped maraschino cherries).

Time 6h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
6 ounces semisweet chocolate or 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
1 9-inch baked pie crust (traditional, graham cracker, or cookie crumb crust)
1 cup whipping cream, well-chilled
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
chocolate curls (optional)
chocolate chips (optional)

Steps:

  • In small bowl, combine 1 cup of confectioner's sugar with the butter on the low speed of a mixer until fluffy.
  • Blend in the chocolate and vanilla.
  • Then, on high speed, beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition.
  • Pour into the prepared pie shell and cover with plastic wrap.
  • Freeze for at least 6 hours or until firm.
  • For easier cutting, remove the pie from the freezer 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
  • When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap.
  • Then, in a chilled bowl, beat the whipping cream and 2 tablespoons of confectioner's sugar until stiff.
  • Pile decoratively onto the pie, and top with garnish if desired.
  • NOTE: I have found my small hand-held mixer works better for this than my stronger tabletop model.
  • If you use a tabletop mixer, be careful you don't overmix.
  • This pie should be thick, dense and creamy, and overbeating the eggs will give it a more mousse-like texture.
  • It's by no means bad that way, but it is much better when the consistency is thick.

The pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still good.

I was skeptical about making a frozen chocolate pie, but I was pleasantly surprised. The pie was delicious and it was a lot easier to make than I thought it would be.

This chocolate pie was a hit! It was creamy, rich, and had the perfect amount of sweetness. The crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
