Best Moka Fudge Pie Recipes

MOCHA FUDGE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Coat a 9 inch pie dish with cooking spray.
• In a mixing bowl,combine hot water and 2 teaspoons coffee granules. Stir well, then add 2 cups of the brownie mix, 1 teaspoon of the vanilla and the two egg whites. Stir until blended. There may be a few small lumps.
• Transfer batter to the pie dish and bake at 325 for 22 minutes. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
• Clean out the bowl you used for the brownie mix (or grab a new one) and add milk, 2 tablespoons Kahlúa, 1 teaspoon coffee granules (or half a packet), 1 teaspoon vanilla, and pudding mix.
• Beat by hand with a scraper for about 100 strokes or use an electric mixer for 30 seconds -- just enough to blend and work out any lumps. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups whipped topping. Spoon pudding mixture over the brownie crust and spread evenly.
• Combine 1 tablespoon Kahlúa and 1 teaspoon coffee granules (1/2 packet) in a bowl; stir well. Gently fold in remaining 1 1/2 cups whipped topping. Spread whipped topping mixture evenly over pudding mixture. Garnish with chocolate curls, if desired. Serve immediately or store loosely covered in refrigerator.
• Note: Nonalcoholic Mocha Version: When making the pudding mixture, substitute 2 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk for the Kahlúa. In the topping omit the Kahlua and dissolve the instant coffee granules in 1 tablespoon water.

MOCHA-ALMOND FUDGE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Finely grind chocolate cookies in food processor. Add butter and process until crumbs are moist and stick together. Using plastic wrap as aid, firmly press crumbs onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter deep-dish glass pie plate. Bake crust 10 minutes. Freeze until cold, about 15 minutes.
• Spread butterscotch sauce over bottom of crust; freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Spoon ice cream into crust, pressing to compact and mounding slightly in center. Freeze 15 minutes. Spread fudge topping over ice cream; freeze 5 minutes. Press chopped toffee onto topping. Cover and freeze until very firm, at least 6 hours. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)
• Let pie stand at room temperature 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

MOCHA MOUSSE PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add the shortening and pulse until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Add the butter and pulse a few times until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the ice water and vodka and pulse until the dough starts coming together but is still crumbly. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap and pat into a disk, using the plastic wrap to help you. Wrap and refrigerate until very firm, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with your fingers. Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes. Line the crust with foil and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until the edge is dry, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and beans and continue baking until dry all over, 15 to 20 more minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Combine 3/4 cup heavy cream and the butter in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, then immediately pour over the chocolate. Add the vanilla and salt (do not stir), cover with plastic wrap and let stand 5 minutes. Whisk until melted and smooth. (If there are pieces of unmelted chocolate, microwave in 15-second intervals until smooth.) Set aside to cool.
• Beat the remaining 1 3/4 cups heavy cream and the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in three batches (do not overmix; the filling should be light and airy). Transfer to the cooled pie crust and smooth the top. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Remove the pie from the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving. Make the topping: Beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Stir the chocolate syrup and espresso powder in a small bowl until dissolved. Fold about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate syrup mixture into the whipped cream, then spread on the pie. Drizzle with the remaining syrup mixture; sprinkle with the espresso beans.
