Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For crust
1 1/2 cups finely ground or crushed chocolate wafer cookies (about 7 ounces)
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For bittersweet chocolate sauce
3/4 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
8 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pints chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream
1 pint chocolate fudge brownie ice cream
1 pint cookies-and-cream ice cream
2 ounces good-quality white chocolate (such as Lindt or Baker's), chopped

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter metal pie pan or glass pie dish. Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter in bowl until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom and up sides of prepared pan. Bake until crust is set, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Make bittersweet chocolate sauce:
  • Combine cream, butter, and corn syrup in medium saucepan. Bring to simmer. Remove from heat. Add bittersweet chocolate; let stand 1 minute. Whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla. Let stand at room temperature until cool and slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Place alternate scoops of chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream, chocolate fudge brownie ice cream, and cookies-and-cream ice cream in single layer in cooled crust. Drizzle 1/2 cup chocolate sauce over ice cream. Freeze pie until sauce sets, about 10 minutes. Top pie with scoops of remaining ice cream, alternating flavors and mounding in center. Drizzle 1/3 cup sauce over. Freeze pie until firm, at least 2 hours. (Can be prepared 5 days ahead. Cover tightly and keep frozen. Cover and refrigerate remaining chocolate sauce.)
  • Stir white chocolate in top of double boiler set over barely simmering water just until melted and smooth. Using small spoon, drizzle white chocolate in thin lines over ice cream pie. Freeze until white chocolate is firm, about 10 minutes. Stir bittersweet chocolate sauce over low heat just until warm. Serve pie with warm chocolate sauce.

CHEF JOHN'S CHOCOLATE DECADENCE



Chef John's Chocolate Decadence image

This 'flourless' chocolate cake was all the rage in the 1980s. As I vaguely remember, the decade celebrated decadent overindulgence and this dessert is that and more. By modern standards, this cake is ridiculously rich. In fact, some of you may find it too intense, but most true chocolate fiends will be in heaven. Serve with ice-cold fresh raspberry sauce.

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

18 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
10 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 large eggs, at room temperature
4 teaspoons white sugar
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Butter and flour a 9-inch cake pan.
  • Melt semisweet chocolate and unsalted butter together in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula, until chocolate and butter are completely melted and combined. Remove from heat.
  • Beat eggs and sugar together in a bowl with a whisk or an electric mixer until pale and very thick, 5 to 10 minutes. Sift in flour, cayenne, and salt; whisk to combine.
  • Pour 1/4 of the egg mixture into chocolate mixture; stir to combine. Pour chocolate mixture into remaining egg mixture and stir until cake batter is combined. Pour batter into prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until just barely set, with a jiggle below the surface, 14 to 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature, wrap in aluminum foil, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
