Number Of Ingredients 27

Gingersnap crust:
6 ounces gingersnap cookies (about 24)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Custard:
1 envelope unflavored gelatin powder
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup mascarpone
5 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1/4 cup hot espresso or strong coffee
Assembly:
1 cup chilled heavy cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon dark rum
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Natural unsweetened cocoa powder
Grated semisweet or bittersweet chocolate
Toasted sliced almonds
Special Equipment
A 9"-diameter glass or ceramic pie dish

Steps:

  • For gingersnap crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Pulse cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Drizzle in butter and cream; pulse until well blended. Pour into prepared dish. Use the bottom and sides of a measuring cup to pack crumbs onto bottom and up sides of dish. Bake until crust is set, 12-15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack; set aside.
  • For custard:
  • Pour 2 tablespoons water into a small bowl; sprinkle gelatin over. Let stand until gelatin softens, about 10 minutes. Heat milk and cream in a large saucepan over medium heat until mixture just comes to a simmer.
  • Whisk egg yolks and next 5 ingredients in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk egg mixture into milk mixture; whisk in gelatin. Whisk constantly over medium-low heat until thick, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove vanilla custard from heat and stir in mascarpone. Place 1 cup custard in a medium bowl; add chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Stir in espresso. Pour chocolate custard into crust; smooth top. Chill pie until set, about 30 minutes. Let vanilla custard stand at room temperature.
  • Gently pour remaining vanilla custard over chilled chocolate layer (pour slowly so as not to disturb chocolate layer). Smooth top; chill until set, about 1 hour, or keep covered up to 1 day.
  • For assembly:
  • Using an electric mixer at medium-low speed, beat cream and sugar in a medium bowl until cream begins to thicken. Add rum and vanilla; increase speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form. Spread whipped cream over custard. Dust with cocoa powder and garnish with grated chocolate and almonds. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill uncovered.

The pie was a little runny when I took it out of the oven. I think I needed to let it cool for a few minutes longer before serving.

I had some trouble getting the pie crust to brown evenly. I think I needed to bake it for a few minutes longer.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the chocolate filling.

I'm not a big fan of black bottom pie, but this recipe was pretty good. The chocolate filling was rich and decadent, and the vanilla filling was light and fluffy. The graham cracker crust was a nice touch.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate pie, but this one is really good. The vanilla filling helps to balance out the chocolate flavor.
