Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 0.25 cup Irish cream liqueur
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- optional whipped cream for garnish
- optional chocolate shavings or curls for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine semisweet chocolate chips and heavy whipping cream. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the unsalted butter until melted and incorporated. Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly.
Sprinkle the chopped macadamia nuts evenly across the bottom of the pie crust.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, Irish cream liqueur, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually fold the melted chocolate mixture into the condensed milk mixture, stirring until fully blended.
Pour the chocolate filling over the macadamia nuts in the pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until the edges are set, but the center still has a slight jiggle.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours or overnight to ensure it sets properly.
Before serving, garnish the pie with whipped cream and chocolate shavings or curls, if desired.
