Ingredients
Before we dive into the recipe, let's take a look at the ingredients you'll need to create this delectable chocolate cream pie. Don't worry, you probably already have most of these items in your pantry.
For the crust:
1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
1/3 cup melted butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
For the filling:
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Now that you have all your ingredients, let's get started on making this delicious Thanksgiving treat.
Step 1: Preparing the crust
Mix together the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl until well combined. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, making sure to evenly cover the bottom and sides. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
Step 2: Making the filling
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. This should take about 5 minutes.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks. Slowly pour about 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Then, pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan and continue cooking until the filling is thick and bubbly.
Step 3: Adding the chocolate
Remove the filling from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and chocolate chips until the chocolate is melted and fully incorporated. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 4: Refrigerating the pie
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will give the pie time to set and become firm.
Step 5: Serving and enjoying
Once the pie is fully chilled, remove it from the refrigerator and top with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or any other toppings of your choice. Serve and enjoy your Thanksgiving chocolate cream pie!
This delicious dessert is perfect for any Thanksgiving celebration. Its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture will have your guests coming back for seconds (or maybe even thirds). So, skip the pumpkin pie this year and give this chocolate cream pie recipe a try. Your taste buds will thank you.
