Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup(s) graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup(s) baking cocoa
1/4 cup(s) sugar
1/3 cup(s) butter, melted
1 package(s) (16 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 cup(s) heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoon(s) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla

Steps:

  • CRUST: Combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa and sugar in 9 inch pie plate. Stir in butter until moistened; press onto bottom and sides of pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chips over bottom of hot crust; let stand for 10 minutes or until all chips are shiny. Spread chocolate over bottom and up side of crust. Cool to room temperature.
  • Microwave 2 cups chips and 3/4 cup cream in large, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on high power for 1 minute; stir, just until chips are melted. If necessary, microwave an additional 10 to 15 second intervals. Cool to room temperature.
  • Beat remaining cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in chilled small mixer bowl until soft peaks form. Fold 2 cups whipped cream into chocolate mixture. Spoon into crust; swirl top. Garnish with whipped cream. Refrigerate until firm. Microwave remaining 1/4 cup chips in heavy-duty plastic bag on high for about 30 seconds; knead until smooth. Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle chocolate over pie. Let stand a few minutes before serving.
