Marvelous Microwave Chocolate Cream Pie Recipes

MARVELOUS MICROWAVE CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Place first 6 ingredients in a blender and blend until well mixed.
• Pour mixture into a Pyrex or microwave-safe glass bowl or measuring cup.
• I use a 4-cup Pyrex measuring cup with a handle.
• Add butter to chocolate mixture.
• Microwave on HIGH for 10 minutes.
• During last 5 minutes, stop and stir every minute.
• (if your microwave doesn't have a turntable, you will need to turn the bowl, also, during the last 5 minutes.) By this time, chocolate mixture should be thickened.
• Remove and let cool slightly.
• Add vanilla and continue to cool.
• Pour into a cooked 9-inch pie crust which has been allowed to cool.
• For Meringue: Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Beat egg whites until foamy.
• Gradually add sugar and continue beating until meringue becomes stiff and glossy.
• Add vanilla and mix in well.
• Spread meringue over cooled pie filling in pie shell.
• Spread all the way to the edges and make"seal" over the filling.
• Place pie on cookie sheet.
• Bake in 350°F oven approximately 10-12 minutes or until peaks of meringue turn golden brown.
• Cool thoroughly before slicing.

CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: In the bowl of a food processor with a blade attachment, pulse the cookies until you get cookie crumbs. Put the crumbs in a medium bowl, add the melted butter and toss with a fork to combine. Press the cookies into a 9-inch pie pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until you're ready to use it, whichever comes second.
• Make the ganache: Put the chocolate chips in a medium bowl and set aside. Pour the cream into a small saucepan and, over medium-high heat, bring the cream to a boil. Turn off the heat and pour the cream over the chocolate. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let it sit for 3 minutes. Remove the towel and whisk the ganache until it's shiny. Pour half of the ganache into the pie crust and spread evenly all the way up the sides. Pour the rest of the ganache into a piping bag and set aside at room temperature.
• Make the chocolate whipped cream: In a medium bowl using a rubber spatula, blend the cream cheese, powdered sugar and cocoa powder together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the heavy cream and whisk until medium-stiff peaks form. (Make sure it doesn't get too stiff.) Place the whipped cream in the fridge until you're ready to use it. In another medium bowl, whisk together the instant pudding and the milk until it thickens. Using a rubber spatula, fold half of the chocolate whipped cream into the bowl of pudding. Return both bowls of creamy pudding and remaining whipped cream to the fridge.
• Make the filling: In a microwave-safe bowl with the microwave on high, heat the chocolate chips in 10-second increments, stirring each time, until they're all melted. Add the cream cheese and sugar and mix together.
• Finish the pie: Take the pie crust from the refrigerator. Using an offset metal spatula, spread the pie filling evenly into the pie crust. Return the pie crust and filling to the fridge for 15 minutes to set. Take the filled pie crust and the pudding-and-whipped-cream mixture from the fridge. Spread the mixture evenly over the pie filling. Refrigerate for another 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the pie from the fridge and spread the remaining chocolate whipped cream over the pie. Spray canned whipped topping all over the pie in a fun design. Pipe the remaining ganache all over the pie (optional). Top with the chopped Oreos, shaved chocolate (shaved from a bar with a vegetable peeler) and chocolate sprinkles. Wake up in 30 years from the deliciousness of your chocolate coma.
