by foodlikecake

This pie is delicious. Absolutely delicious. And as far as pies go, really super easy. The graham cracker crust is  super good, the chocolate filling is creamy and rich, and the mascarpone whipped cream is sweet and fluffy. Perfect for anytime.

Ingredients: Graham Cracker Crust (from here)

1 and 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 9 graham crackers)

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Chocolate Pie Filling  (from here)

1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk

2 large egg yolks

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mascarpone Whipped Cream

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/2 cup mascarpone cheese

2 tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Recipe: Graham Cracker Crust

Preheat oven to 325F.

Crush the graham crackers in a food processor.

Stir graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Add melted butter and stir with a fork.

Bake crust for 8-10 minutes, or until it just starts to brown.

Chocolate Pie Filling

Whisk together evaporated milk and egg yolks in medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is very hot and thickens slightly; do not boil. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate chips until completely melted and mixture is smooth.

Pour into crust and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.

Mascarpone Whipped Cream

Beat all ingredients together until soft peaks form. Spread smoothly on pie.

Enjoy!
