"No Bake Chocolate Pie-USE THIS ONE
By RoketJSquerl
This no-bake chocolate pie is rich, fudgy, and seriously delicious. The crust is no bake and made with Oreo cookies. Then the filling is a chocolate ganache that's silky smooth.
Ingredients
- Oreo Crust:
- 25 25 25 Oreo cookies , wafers and filling
- 6 6 6 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted
- Chocolate Filling;
- 10 10 50-80% oz dark chocolate , 50-80%
- 6 6 6 oz milk chocolate
- 6 6 6 tablespoons unsalted butter , in 6 pieces
- 1 1 1 tablespoon corn syrup
- 1 3/4 1 3/4 3/4 cups heavy cream
Preparation
Step 1
Make sure to use quality chocolate. Because the dark chocolate provides most of the flavor – it’s important to use one that doesn’t taste waxy or overly sweet. I typically use Callebaut or Lindt chocolate bars.
Do not use chocolate chips. Chocolate chips are made with stabilizers to prevent them from melting – therefore your pie can become lumpy instead of smooth.
Instructions
Oreo Crust
Crush the Oreos in a food processor, or place them in a Ziploc bag and bash with a rolling pin.
Mix the crushed cookies with the melted butter.
Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
Place in the freezer as you make the filling.
Chocolate Filling
Chop the chocolate and place in a large heat-proof bowl along with the butter and corn syrup.
Bring the cream to a gentle simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
Once the cream gently starts to boil, remove from the heat and pour over the chocolate.
Cover the bowl and let sit for 3 minutes.
Whisk everything together until it's glossy and no longer looks milky.
Pour into the prepared crust and place the pie in the fridge for at least 2 hours before slicing.
Serve with whipped cream and berries.
Recipe Notes
*I recommend removing the pie from the fridge about 20 minutes before serving if it's been in the fridge overnight.
**This pie freezes well. Then thaw overnight in the fridge.
