+ | ====== Chocolate Pie ====== | ||
+ | I think this is a nytimes recipe that someone transcribed on reddit, or something like that. In any case this is a re-transcription of a screenshot of two reddit comments. Delicious pie for when I'm craving that old silk instant chocolate pie box mix from my childhood. | ||
+ | ===== Ingredients ===== | ||
+ | Crust: | ||
+ | * 2c / 270g oreo crumbs (about 24 oreos, but I prefer to import no name chocolate crumbs from canada) | ||
+ | * 4T / 57g butter, melted | ||
+ | * 1/2 t kosher salt | ||
+ | |||
+ | Custard: | ||
+ | * 1/2 c / 100g sugar | ||
+ | * 3T cornstarch | ||
+ | * 2T cocoa powder | ||
+ | * 3/4 t kosher salt | ||
+ | * 3c / 720mL whole milk | ||
+ | * 6 egg yolks | ||
+ | * 8oz / 225g semisweet bar chocolate, finely chopped | ||

+ | * 1t vanilla | ||
+ | |||
+ | Topping: | ||
+ | * 1c / 240mL heavy cream | ||
+ | * 1T powdered sugar | ||
+ | * crumb garnish | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Directions ===== | ||
+ | - heat oven to 350F and turn oreos to crumbs, if needed | ||
+ | - mix butter into crumbs until evenly moistened (food processor helps, especially if making the crumbs yourself) | ||
+ | - press crumbs into bottom and sides of 9" pie dish, bake until set, about 12min, cool | ||
+ | - prepare a fine mesh sieve over a medium bowl | ||
+ | - in a medium saucepan, whisk sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and salt | ||
+ | - pour in a little milk and which to smooth paste, add remaining milk gradually to mix evenly | ||
+ | - whisk in egg yolks | ||
+ | - cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it thickens and comes to a low boil, about 8-9min | ||
+ | - cook and stir 1min more then pour through sieve, discard any solids | ||
+ | - stir in chocolate, butter, and vanilla, let stand 1min to melt, then stir until smooth | ||
+ | - pour custard into crust, let cool slightly, cover surface with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 6hr | ||
+ | - to serve, whip cream and powdered sugar to soft peaks and top pie | ||
