MOM'S MOST REQUESTED CHOCOLATE PIE



Mom's Most Requested Chocolate Pie image

This chocolate pie is not only a Southern traditional dish, but my mom has to make 2 to take to church lunches. Most people go back for dessert only to find all the pie gone - the smart ones get their piece on the first trip through. This is pie is also served as "birthday cake" on most everyone's special day. And the only way to top it off is with a piled-high meringue!

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (9-inch) frozen unbaked piecrust shell
Ryan's Quick Chocolate Ganache, recipe follows
1 cup store-bought brownies, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (2 to 3 brownies)
1/2 cup store-bought caramel sauce
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons instant espresso
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
2 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line the piecrust shell with parchment paper, and fill it with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the pie weights and parchment paper. Return the pie crust to the oven, and bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove to a wire rack, and cool for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, let the prepared ganache stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the brownie cubes on the bottom of the pie crust; top with the caramel sauce, drizzling it evenly. Beat the ganache, heavy cream, and espresso with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy. Using a spatula, spread the ganache mixture evenly over the top of the pie.
  • Chill the pie, uncovered, for 2 hours. Dust with the confectioners' sugar just before serving.
  • Put the chocolate chips in a heatproof mixing bowl. Stir together the cream, corn syrup, vanilla, and salt in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate chips, making sure all the chips are submerged. (Do not stir or touch the chocolate mixture.) Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let it stand for 5 minutes.
  • Using a spatula and starting from the bottom of the bowl, gently move the mixture from side to side to begin combining the chocolate with the cream mixture. Gradually and slowly stir from the middle until smooth and blended, 2 to 3 minutes.
