Chocolate Mocha Meringue Pie Recipes

CHOCOLATE MOCHA CREAM PIE

Steps:

• For the Crust: In a bowl, combine crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter until mixture resembles damp sand. Press tightly into bottom and along sides of a greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake at 350F for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the Chocolate Mocha Filling: In a medium and heavy saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, and coffee crystals. Whisk to combine. Add half and half and beaten yolks. Whisk together to combine well. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat while whisking continuously. Boil and whisk for 1 minute, or until filling is smooth and thick. Remove from heat.
• Add chocolate chips and 2 TB butter into the hot mocha filling. Whisk to combine well, and pour filling into prepared pie crust. Smooth top out evenly, place cling wrap directly onto surface of filling, and chill in fridge at least 4 hours.
• For the Kahlua Whipped Cream: Place mixing bowl and beaters in freezer to chill. In a small bowl, combine gelatin with 2 TB water, letting gelatin soak up the water. Place in microwave for 10 seconds to melt the gelatin mixture. Stir and set aside.
• In the chilled mixing bowl, add heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and Kahlua liqueur. Beat on medium-high with chilled beaters until mixture is ribbony, not quite at soft peaks. Slowly and steadily, pour the lukewarm gelatin liquid into the heavy cream mixture, while continuing to beat (if gelatin has coagulated, bring it back to a lukewarm liquid before using.) Beat to firm peaks. If you over-beat a bit past firm peaks and whipped cream is a bit clumpy, it's fine.
• Spread or pipe whipped cream on top of chilled pie. Garnish with cocoa powder or shaved chocolate.
