No-Bake Chocolate-Raspberry Cream Pie image

Since my little girl is allergic to strawberries, I am always looking for great alternatives using raspberries. We have come to really love them! Here's a quick and easy pie. You can put this together in no time flat but allow at least 2 hours for chilling time. I found this in the July '09 issue of bon appetit. To make the creme fraiche try recipe #57607

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 2h30m

Yield 10 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

7 ounces chocolate wafer cookies, coarsely broken (about 32)
1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
6 tablespoons butter, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1/4 cup sugar
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup creme fraiche
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
2 1/2 cups fresh raspberries

Steps:

  • Place broken cookies in fodd processor. Using on/off turns, process until finely ground. Place chocolate chips, butter and sugar in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high at 15-second intervals until melted, stirring occasionally. Add chocolate mixture to processor and blend until combined. Press crumbs onto bottom and up sides of a 9" pie dish (do not pack firmly). Chill crust while preparing filling.
  • Whisk condensed milk, creme fraiche, lemon juice, and lemon peel in large bowl to blend. Add half of raspberries. Stir, pressing gently on some raspberries, until they begin to break apart and filling turns pink. Transfer filling into crust. Chill until filling is set, about 2 hours.
  • Scatter remaining berries over pie. Cut and serve.
  • Note: the filling firms up as it chills because the lemon juice reacts with the other ingredients and thickens the pie.
