Mixing the Filling Together

Topping it All Off!

Chocolate: Use good quality chocolate, think Lindt, Ghirardelli, or Godiva. The better quality the chocolate the better the flavor of the pie. Do not skimp on the chocolate. And do not use Chocolate chips. They have stabilizers in them that keep them from melting smoothly. Your pie could end up lumpy. Crust: If you want to lighten up the chocolate flavor, use a graham cracker crust instead. You can substitute an equal amount of graham cracker for the Oreos. Cream: You can use half and half to melt the chocolate if you desire. But use heavy whipping cream for both the rest of the filling and the topping. For the topping, if you are in a hurry you can use cool whipped topping instead. Topping: You can place the whipped topping on each slice as you serve it, instead of spreading it on the whole pie if you would like. This will make storing leftovers easier. Espresso Powder: Espresso powder is darkly roasted coffee beans that have been ground, brewed, dried, and then ground to a very fine powder. They help give the chocolate a richer, more intense flavor. You can leave out the espresso powder and still have an indulgent dessert. It is optional. Garnish: There are other options besides the chocolate curls. Crushed Oreos, or Reese’s peanut butter cups, chopped nuts, or heath bar crumbles all make a great topping.

Fridge: Because of the high dairy content, this needs to be kept in the fridge. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, I like to use toothpicks to keep it from squishing my whipped topping. Keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. Freeze: This freezes beautifully. It is best if you know you are going to freeze it, to not put the whipped topping on top. Wrap in plastic wrap and then with foil for a double layer. Freeze for up to 2 months. Let it thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
