Nesselrode Pie I Recipes

NESSELRODE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In a food processor, pulse the graham crackers and cocoa to form fine crumbs. Add the butter and pulse to combine.
• Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie plate. Bake until lightly toasted, 10 to 14 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 cup milk and the rum in a heavy-bottomed saucepan until small bubbles appear around the edges. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and brown sugar until thick and pale, about 2 minutes.
• Whisking constantly, gradually pour the warm milk over the egg mixture. Return to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 12 to 17 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in the chestnut purée until smooth (if you can't whisk it smooth, transfer to a food processor and purée).
• Place the remaining 1⁄4 cup milk in a bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the top and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk into the warm chestnut mixture to combine, then pass through a strainer, return to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool to the touch, 45 minutes to 1 hour (do not leave longer or the gelatin will set).
• Using an electric mixer, beat the cream in a large bowl until medium-stiff peaks form. Stir a spoonful of heavy cream into the chestnut mixture to loosen, then fold in the remaining cream. Transfer to the prepared crust and refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
• If desired, top with chocolate curls or shavings before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a saucepan and when it is warm, add the gelatin. Stir to dissolve. Bring just to the simmer and remove from the heat.
• Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and add one-quarter cup of sugar. Beat until golden yellow and slightly thickened. Add the hot milk mixture, stirring vigorously.
• Pour this liquid into a saucepan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the custard coats the spoon with a film. The correct temperature on a thermometer is 180 degrees. Immediately pour the mixture into a cold mixing bowl so that it does not cook further. Add the Nesselrode mix and stir. Let cool.
• Beat the egg whites until foamy. Continue beating while gradually adding the remaining one-third cup of sugar. Beat until stiff and fold this into the custard mixture.
• Beat the cream until stiff and fold it into the custard. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight until set.
