Time 5h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

40 chocolate wafer cookies
3/4 cup sugar, divided
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 large egg yolks
2 cups half-and-half
1/2 cup brewed coffee
1 cup heavy cream
chocolate shavings, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Process cookies, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor until fine crumbs form, 15 to 30 seconds. Add butter and pulse to combine, 5 to 10 times. Press cookie mixture in the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake, on a baking sheet, until crust is dry and set, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool on a rack.
  • Place chocolate chips in a bowl. Whisk together cornstarch, egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in half-and-half and coffee. Cook over medium low heat, whisking constantly, until thickened and the whisk holds a trail, 6 to 8 minutes. Strain over chocolate chips.
  • Transfer pudding to a cooled crust and smooth top. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of pudding. Chill, at least 4 hours.
  • Discard plastic wrap. Whip cream and 2 tablespoons sugar to medium peaks and dollop over chilled pie.
  • Serve topped with shaved chocolate.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good quality cocoa powder will also give your pie a rich, chocolatey taste.
  • Don't overmix the pie crust. Overmixing will make the crust tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the pie crust before baking. This will help prevent the crust from shrinking and cracking.
  • Bake the pie crust for the full amount of time indicated in the recipe. An underbaked crust will be soggy and difficult to handle.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

This easy mocha cream pie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's rich, chocolatey, and creamy, with a delicious whipped cream topping. It's also relatively easy to make, so it's perfect for busy bakers. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or just for a weeknight treat, this pie is sure to be a hit.
