This recipe, based off of a great one found at She Wears Many Hats will prove to be a great base for easy pies going forward.
Ingredients
- 6oz chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 4 tablespoons liqueur
- 1 premade pie crust (graham cracker or chocolate cookie)
Optional
- garnish
Note
The world is your oyster (or chocolate pie!) when it comes to good combinations. Use your favorites, but here are some that have already proven successful in my kitchen:
- Dark chocolate chips, Bailey's Irish Cream, chocolate cookie crust
- White chocolate chips, Grand Marnier, graham cracker crust
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips, Frangelico, chocolate cookie crust
Directions
| 1. | Melt chocolate chips according to package directions. Use liqueur, a teaspoon at a time, should you need a liquid to smooth out the melted chocolate. Let cool slightly. |
| 2. | Whip cream and sugar until soft peaks start to form. Slowly drizzle in the rest of the liqueur. |
| 3. | Gently fold in chocolate into whipped cream. Spread mixture into pie crust. Garnish with sea salt, caramel drizzle, or any other appropriate topping. |
| 4. | Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Serve with extra fresh whipped cream should you have any extras to use up. |
