Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 cup finely chopped nuts
1/4 cup butter or margarine
3 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup whipping cream
Whipped cream
Sliced almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. In large bowl, beat 3/4 cup butter and 1/3 cup sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 1 minute. Stir in cocoa and flour until mixture is crumbly. Press firmly and evenly against bottom and side of 9 1/2-inch deep-dish glass pie plate or 10-inch regular glass pie plate. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until edge appears dry. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • In 2-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter and the chocolate over low heat, stirring occasionally; remove from heat. In small bowl, mix 1 cup sugar and the cornstarch with wire whisk; stir into chocolate mixture.
  • In small bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on medium speed about 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored; stir into chocolate mixture. Cook chocolate mixture over medium heat 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until thick and glossy. Stir in vanilla. Cool 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • In medium bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Fold chocolate mixture into whipped cream. Pour over crust. Cover; freeze about 4 hours or until firm. Remove from freezer; let stand 30 minutes before cutting. Top with whipped cream; sprinkle with almonds. Store covered in freezer.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate and peanut butter together, but this pie was surprisingly good. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I would definitely make it again.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I liked the texture of the filling and the crust was flaky and buttery.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out right. The filling was runny and the crust was soggy.

This pie was not what I expected. The filling was too sweet for my taste, and the crust was too thick.

This pie was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still came out perfect. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the whipped cream topping was the perfect finishing touch.
