A Collection of Chocolate Pie Recipes || In Celebration of Pi Day
February 28, 2014
Pi day (yup there is a national day to celebrate the famous 3.14285...number) is coming up and since I'm always looking for dessert inspiration I thought it would be the perfect excuse to make a pie- and of course it had to be chocolate. If the idea of a
chocolate pie excites you as it does me here is a collection of
chocolate pie recipes that I have bookmarked for future reference. This is such fine inspiration-
Funny how celebrating PI day has turned into an excuse to eat pies. Growing up we used to go to a restaurant whose signature dessert was a chocolate pie. It was so perfect and delicious. I'm not sure how we got a hold of the recipe, but we did, and I used to make it with my friends and of course we would almost eat the entire thing right out of the oven. This recipe disappeared somehow but I'm on a mission to get my hands on it. One of my childhood friends must have it still. In honor of this lost recipe I decided to make this delicious Martha Stewart chocolate and meringue pie. It was delicious! Proof- we all had seconds. Have you ever tried a chocolate pie? Or do you have a favorite recipe I should know about?

ReplyDeleteYumm!! I make a "famous" chocolate chess pie for just about every occasion, including Christmas gifts. It's an old recipe that I've tweaked over the years, but everyone loves it. And really, who doesn't love chocolate pie?!?!
ReplyDeleteThe Chocolate Baileys Mousse tart sounds so light and delicious. I would definitely like to make it!
