MISSISSIPPI MUD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Add graham crackers to a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
• Transfer to a bowl and make a well in the crumbs, pour the melted butter into the well and mix to combine. Add the sugar and stir until combined.
• Press crust mix into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan5. Using a straight-edge glass will help with this.
• Place the springform pan on a large baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
• While crust is baking, melt the butter in the microwave on 30-second intervals until fully melted and add to a large mixing bowl.
• Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for 30-second intervals, stirring between each one until melted. Add to the mixing bowl along with the sugars, vanilla paste, and salt and whisk to combine.
• Stir together the hot water and espresso powder and then add to the mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
• Whisk in the eggs one at a time, making sure no yolk is visible after each addition.
• Whisk in the cocoa until fully incorporated. The mixture will be slightly runny.
• Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
• Carefully transfer to the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Make sure the springform pan is still on the baking sheet in the oven.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature ( about 1 to 2 hours). Once cooled, prepare your whipped cream by beating together the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a chilled metal bowl until soft peaks form. Then top the pie with the whipped cream recipe and chocolate and serve.6,7,8

MISSISSIPPI MUD PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pulse the graham crackers and pecans in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and process until moistened. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the chocolate crumb mixture for topping, then press the rest into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake until set, about 10 minutes; transfer to a rack and let cool.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Melt the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring. Remove from the heat, then stir in the flour and salt until smooth. Stir in the sugar, corn syrup, coffee liqueur and vanilla. Add the eggs, one at a time, stirring until smooth. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and bake until set and cracked on top (like a brownie), about 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool slightly, about 2 hours (the pie should still be slightly warm).
• Make the whipped cream: Beat the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla with a mixer until soft peaks form. Top the pie with the whipped cream, pecans and reserved chocolate crumb mixture. Drizzle with chocolate sauce.
