This chocolate pie is so decadent, and rich in flavor. I already had a couple of pieces before I took the picture. This is not my own recipe. It was a cut out from a magazine, that I had kept some time ago. I don't remember the magazine, and there is no indication of who developed the recipe. I already had the ingredients and thought I should try and make it. The pie filling is the same as the recipe. The pie dough and the chocolate whip topping is my own recipe. It's a great recipe for special occasions, like Christmas or Easter or even Thanksgiving. At 145 calories per ounce, that is pretty rich and there is no way I can have it every day. But definitely enjoy it when you make it.
2 cups sifted flour
½ tsp salt
8 tbsp butter
¼ cup water
Used the food processor and it took a bit more of icy water. This is my own pie dough that I had for years – from Canada
Place the sifted flower with the salt and the butter in the food processor. Pulse till mixed together. Slowly add the ice water and pulse, till it forms a ball. Remove from the food processor, shape it into a round ball, wrap it in saran wrap and place it in the fridge till ready to use.
This recipe makes dough for two pie shells. I froze the other half in the freezer.
Chocolate Pie filling:
2¼ cups granulated sugar
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup evaporated milk
3 large eggs,
½ cup butter melted
1½ tsp vanilla
3.5 oz 72% cacao dark chocolate private selection
Sift together the sugar and the cocoa. Using a mixer, add the eggs, the evaporated milk, the butter and the vanilla and mix well together. Add the chocolate chunks and fold into the mixture.
Preheat the oven at 350°F.
Take the pie dough out from the refrigerator. Roll out into a round and place it in a 9” plate but a deep one. Pour the Chocolate pie filling and put it in the preheated oven. Bake for an hour, till a toothpick or a knife inserted comes out clean. Some of the chocolate won’t be completely solid, but it will solidify as it cools. Just make sure the pie dough is cooked. A clear glass Pyrex pie plate is the best.
Chocolate whipped topping
½ cup of the evaporated milk
4 tbsp powdered sugar
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
½ tsp vanilla
1 envelope dream whip whipped topping
Sift together the powdered sugar with the cocoa powder. Add the envelope of dream whip topping and the milk. Use the mixer at high speed and mix well, till soft peaks form. Refrigerate till the chocolate pie is cool. Place on top of the pie and sprinkle with some chocolate sprinkles or shaved chocolate. Enjoy!
