BISHOP'S CHOCOLATE PIE



Bishop's Chocolate Pie image

We lived in Des Moines from 1974-76 and discovered Bishop's Cafeteria at Merle Hay Mall. Anytime we had out-of-town guests, they always wanted to dine there. And of course, everybody had to have a slice of Bishop's Chocolate Pie for dessert. This is a copycat recipe that my mother-in-law gave me many, many years ago. I'm making 4 pies today -- one to keep and 3 to send to Ronald McDonald House tomorrow for a supper that my sorority chapter is serving. There are many variations of this receipe, and this is the one from the kitchen of Helen Julis Court, Ottumwa IA.

Time 3h

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 cups flour
3 cups whipped topping
1 1/2 cups pecans, Chopped
3 packets instant chocolate pudding mix
8 ounces cream cheese
3 cups milk

Steps:

  • Melt butter; stir in flour and 1 c of the nuts.
  • Continue stirring until a thick paste is formed, with no flour lumps.
  • Press into bottom of a 13x10 baking pan and bake 15 min at 375F.
  • Cool.
  • Prepare first layer of filling by combining cream cheese, sugar, and 1 c whipped topping.
  • Beat with electric mixer at med speed for 2-3 min.
  • Spoon into cooled crust, then smooth with spatula.
  • Combine pudding and milk in the mixing bowl used for the first filling.
  • Beat well, then pour over the cream cheese layer.
  • As soon as the chocolate layer firms up a bit, spoon on more whipped topping, smoothing and adding until there is an additional 1/2" layer above the chocolate.
  • Sprinkle with remaining pecans and chill for at least 3 hours.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will give your pie a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Make sure your butter is cold before you start working with it. This will help to prevent the pie crust from becoming greasy.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can make the pie crust by hand. Just be sure to work the butter and flour together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Don't overmix the pie crust. Overmixing will make the crust tough.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pie filling. Overcooked filling will be thick and rubbery.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Bishop's Chocolate Pie is a classic Southern dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, decadent chocolate filling and flaky, buttery crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
