CHOCOLATE-MARSHMALLOW PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the crust: Pulse the graham crackers and granulated sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse a few times until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate, making a thicker rim around the edge. Bake until the top edge is firm and the bottom is dry, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Melt the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool 5 minutes. Whisk in the granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt until smooth. Whisk in the flour until combined.
• Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Make the topping: Combine the heavy cream, marshmallow cream and confectioners' sugar in a food processor and pulse, scraping down the processor, until the mixture is thick. Spoon the topping onto the center of the pie. Top with shaved chocolate.

CHOCOLATE SILK PIE

Steps:

• Fill a medium pot with 1 inch water over medium heat. Whisk the eggs with 1/2 cup of the sugar and the water or coffee in a large heatproof bowl that will fit over the pot without touching the water. Place the bowl over the simmering water and continue whisking constantly until the eggs become thick and fluffy, and a drizzle of the mixture will hold its shape and sit on top of the custard, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool, whisking occasionally so the eggs do not scramble.
• Combine the butter, salt and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a large bowl and beat in a stand mixer or with hand beaters on medium-high speed until fluffy. Pour in the chocolate and 1 1/4 teaspoons of the vanilla and continue to beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until combined. Add the custard and continue to beat until the filling is thick, fluffy and smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Spread into the pie crust and cover with plastic wrap. Chill until cold and set, 2 to 3 hours. Before serving, whip the cream with the confectioners' sugar and remaining 1/4 teaspoon vanilla until it forms soft peaks. Spread over the pie filling and garnish with chocolate shavings.
