S’more Pie
Posted January 14, 2007 – 1:08 pm in: Baking, Dessert, Pie
I took this recipe from Morning Coffee & Afternoon Tea, doubled it, tweaked it and made a pie.
Ingredients:
- Crust
- 1 2/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
- Filling
- 1 cup marshmallow creme, divided
- 1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- Topping (optional)
- Whipped cream
- Fresh fruit
- Shaved chocolate
Directions:
- Crust
- Melt butter or margarine.
- Combine all ingredients, mixing well.
- Firmly press crumb mixture evenly over bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
- Bake at 350 degrees F. for 7 to 9 minutes.
- Cool to room temperature
- Filling
- Spread 1/2 cup of the marshmallow creme on the bottom of the pie shell.
- Place chocolate chips, sugar, milk and instant coffee in a small microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute, until the milk is hot enough to melt the chocolate chips.
- Whisk the mixture until smooth, stir in the vanilla and cool to room temperature.
- In a larger bowl, whip the cream until stiff and stir in the other 1/2 cup of marshmallow creme.
- Stir half of the chocolate into the cream mixture and blend well. Fold the remaining chocolate in creating a “striped” effect.
- Pour the filling into the pie shell and refrigerate until set.
- Serve plain or with your choice of toppings.
