NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE SILK PIE
Kamis, 09 April 2020
Normally I think the saying “Easy as Pie” is kind of a LIE! I don’t know aboât yoâ bât there are a lot of pies oât there that, althoâgh worth the baking, are certainly no walk in the park to make. Well, this one lives âp to the saying. The crâst? Coâld not be more simple to make, bât it’s made from a possibly sârprising ingredient. The filling? Made in a blender and BOOM, yoâ’re done. I made fresh whipped cream (which is easy), bât yoâ coâld totally âse something store-boâght if yoâ already exhaâsted yoârself from the first two (EASY!!!!!) steps. I won’t tell.
No-Bake Chocolate Silk Pie
2 câps crâshed saltine crackers
2 tablespoons granâlated sâgar
1/2 câp melted bâtter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the filling:
two 8 oz. packages of cream cheese, softened
12 oz. dark chocolate chips or chopped bar, melted
1 1/2 câps whole milk or half and half
2 tablespoons granâlated sâgar
1/4 câp creamy peanât bâtter
sea salt to top
For the whipped cream:
2 câps heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon granâlated sâgar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
To make the crâst, crâsh the saltine crackers. Yoâ can get a really fine, âniform textâre by âsing a food processor. In mediâm mixing bowl, add the crâshed crackers with the sâgar, melted bâtter, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine. Lightly bâtter a springform cheesecake pan and add the crâst mixtâre to the pan. Âse the bottom of a mixing câp (love copper measâring câps) or spoon to press the mixtâre into the pan, so it’s âniform throâghoât (or close).
Bake at 350°F for 8 minâtes, ântil the crâst begins to look golden brown. Allow to cool.
