French Silk Pie l The Recipe Rebel

PRINTABLE RECIPE & NUTRITION INFO: www.thereciperebel.com/french...
Ingredients
Crust
▢2½ cups chocolate baking crumbs (340g)
▢½ cup melted butter
Filling
▢1 ½ cups granulated sugar (300g)
▢4 large eggs (room temperature)
▢2 tablespoons cocoa
▢2 cups heavy cream (30-35% fat, divided)
▢200 grams chopped dark chocolate (I use 2 100 grams dark chocolate bars -- about 1 1/4 cup)
▢¼ cup unsalted butter
▢1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
To make the crust, stir together chocolate crumbs and butter. Press into a 9" pie plate and up the sides. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, whisk together sugar, eggs, cocoa and 1 cup cream until smooth.
Place saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, and cook until thickened (you will know when it's thick!).
Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl and stir in chocolate, butter and vanilla until smooth.
Set aside or refrigerate until cooled to room temperature -- 1-2 hours on the counter or 30-40 minutes in the refrigerator -- stirring occasionally.
Whip chocolate mixture on high speed until slightly lightened in color -- about 5 minutes.
Whip remaining 1 cup cream until stiff peaks form, and gently fold into chocolate mixture in two batches.
Spread into prepared pie crust and refrigerate 6 hours or overnight, until set. Garnish with additional sweetened whipped cream before serving if desired.
