Ingredients
- 1 pre-made 9-inch crust graham cracker crust
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.25 cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (optional, for topping) whipped cream
- 0.25 cup (optional, for garnish) chocolate shavings
Instructions
Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a medium heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot heavy cream over the chocolate chips and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate.
Add the unsalted butter and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir the mixture gently until smooth and fully combined.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the pre-made graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly.
Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to the refrigerator to set for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Before serving, optionally top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
