Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Chocolate cookie crumbs
- 5 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 10 ounces Bittersweet chocolate (chopped)
- 3 tablespoons Kahlua liqueur
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped cream (for topping, optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 2: Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
Step 3: In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat 1 cup of the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and immediately pour the hot cream over the chopped bittersweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
Step 4: Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
Step 5: Stir the Kahlua liqueur, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract into the chocolate mixture until fully incorporated. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 6: In a separate bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Step 7: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture until fully combined and airy.
Step 8: Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or until firm.
Step 9: Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired. Slice and enjoy your Chocolate Kahlua Pie!
