Categories     Dessert

Time 6h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

24 Oreo cookies
5 Tablespoons butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 cups whole milk
6 large egg yolks
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
6 Tablespoons salted butter (, chopped into pieces)
8 ounces good quality semi-sweet chocolate (, chopped (I like Ghirardelli's))
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 Tablespoons powdered sugar (, or granulated sugar)
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Add the whole Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and stir in melted butter.
  • Press mixture evenly and firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9in pie dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • To a medium sauce pan over medium heat, add the sugar, and milk and whisk well to combine. Bring mixture to a simmer, whisking frequently.
  • Meanwhile, add the egg yolks and cornstarch to a bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Once the saucepan mixture is simmering, add a few spoonfuls of the hot liquid into the egg yolks and whisk to temper the eggs. Add a few more spoonfuls of the hot liquid into the egg yolks. Then slowly whisk the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Whisk constantly until the mixture begins to thicken and comes to a very gently boil (big bubbles begin to break the surface).
  • Remove pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, chopped chocolate, and vanilla extract. Stir until completely smooth.
  • Pour filling into the cooled cookie crust and smooth into an even layer. Place a piece of plastic wrap gently on top and refrigerate until filling is set, about 4-6 hours or overnight, if desired.
  • Once pudding has set, make the topping by adding the cream to a mixing bowl. Mix with electric mixers on high speed for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the sugar and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Spread whipped cream over pie and top with chocolate curls or shavings.

CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE WITH OREO CRUST



Chocolate Cream Pie With Oreo Crust image

Chocolate wafers may be standard, but a buttery Oreo crumb crust is an even better base for this chocolate cream pie. A store-bought cookie crust filled with from-scratch custard is the perfect combination of simple and sophisticated, with a bit of nostalgia for good measure. Depending on the size of your pie plate, you may have some custard left over after filling the crust: It's a perfect baker's treat.

Time 35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups/270 grams Oreo crumbs (from about 24 standard-sized Oreos)
4 tablespoons/57 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick), melted
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3 cups/720 milliliters whole milk
6 large egg yolks
8 ounces/225 grams semisweet bar chocolate, finely chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup/240 milliliters heavy cream
1 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Crushed Oreos, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Add Oreos to the bowl of a food processor and process until fine crumbs form. Add melted butter and salt, and process until crumbs are evenly moistened. Tip mixture out into a 9-inch pie plate, and press crumbs evenly into bottom and sides of pan. Bake until crust is fragrant and set, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • Set a fine mesh sieve over a medium bowl. In a medium saucepan, whisk together granulated sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder and salt. Pouring just a little at first, whisk the milk into the sugar mixture until you have a smooth paste. Gradually add remaining milk, whisking constantly. Whisk in egg yolks. Cook mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it has thickened and just come up to a low boil, about 8 to 9 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  • Pour custard through sieve, pushing it through with a rubber spatula. Discard any solids. Stir in chocolate, butter and vanilla, and let it stand for 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared crust. Let cool slightly, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 6 hours.
  • To serve, whip cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with crushed Oreos, if using.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is a good choice.
  • Make sure all of your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients blend together smoothly.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs can make the pie filling tough.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help the pie crust cook evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling set and the pie will be easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Chocolate Cream Pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy filling, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone. Follow these tips to make the best Chocolate Cream Pie possible.
