Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

Filling

  • 1 bag (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
  • 1/2 pint (1 cup) whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 egg yolks

Topping

  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • Unsweetened baking cocoa, if desired

Steps

  • 2
    In double boiler set over hot simmering water, heat chocolate chips 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Gradually add 1 cup whipping cream, stirring constantly, until combined. Stir in vanilla and egg yolks until well blended. Cook over medium-low heat 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened and hot. Pour filling into crust. Refrigerate at least 3 hours or until firm.
  • 3
    In medium bowl, beat 1/2 cup whipping cream and the powdered sugar with electric mixer on high speed 1 to 2 minutes or until soft peaks form. Top individual servings with whipped cream. Dust with cocoa.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To evenly press the crumb mixture into the pie plate, use the bottom of a dry measuring cup.
  • tip 2
    Don't own a double boiler? Place a small saucepan in a larger skillet or saucepan filled with 1 to 2 inches of simmering water.
