BLACK BOTTOM EGGNOG PIE



Black Bottom Eggnog Pie image

Like eggnog? Then this pie will be a hit on your holiday table for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. The mixture has primarily the eggnog you buy at the store with a chocolate mixture for the bottom layer, and a plain layer for the top with a light rum flavoring mixed in. I first got this recipe when I tried this pie at a friend's traditional Black Friday pie party. They have family and friends bring their favorite pies, and the first time I attended this was one of them.

Number Of Ingredients 20

6 ounces gingersnap cookies (about 30 small cookies)
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 Tablespoon heavy cream
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups whole milk
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in to small pieces
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 - 1.85 ounce box vanilla pudding mix
16 ounces eggnog
8 ounces heavy cream
2-3 Tablespoons rum
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Whipped cream
Chocolate shavings
Gingersnap cookies
Maraschino cherry

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a food processor, finely grind the gingersnap cookies.
  • Drizzle the butter and heavy cream in and pulse until mixture becomes clumpy.
  • Pour mixture in to 9-inch pie pan. Using the bottom of a wide glass, press the crumbs flat into the bottom of the pie pan, and use your fingers to press them up the sides.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, then let cool completely.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. Over medium-high heat, whisk in the whole milk, stirring constantly until it steams and is almost boiling.
  • Lower temperature to medium heat and add bittersweet chocolate, stirring for about 2-3 minutes until it is completely melted and the mixture thickens.
  • Remove saucepan from heat. Whisk in butter pieces and vanilla and stir until mixture is smooth.
  • Pour finished product into cooled pie shell, spread to even out if necessary, and refrigerate 2-4 hours*.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, add pudding mix and eggnog. Mix on low speed for 4-5 minutes until smooth, scraping sides and bottom of the bowl if necessary.
  • Add cream, rum, and nutmeg, and whip on medium speed for about 6 minutes, then on high for another 3-4 minutes. Finished product should form soft peaks and have the consistency of whipped cream.
  • In your cooled pie shell, top black bottom mixture with eggnog mousse, spreading and forming it to cover the chocolate completely.
  • Garnish as desired with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, gingersnaps, and cherry. Refrigerate for at least another hour before serving.
