Chocolate Pudding Pie
Ingredients
Materials:
- Rolling Pin
- 9 ” Pie Pan
- Nonstick Aluminum Foil
- 2 cups Pie Weights or Dried Beans
- Stand Mixer or Handheld Mixer
- Sturdy Whisk
- Cooling Rack
- Offset Spatula optional
Ingredients:
- TAK’s Perfect Pie Crust only one dough round needed
- 2 3/4 cups whole milk
- 4 ounces semi sweet chocolate chopped
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9" pie plate.
- Make the pie shell by flouring both sides of your dough and placing it on a floured surface. Roll out the dough until it measures approximately 1/8 inch thick by 12 inches in size. Transfer the disk to a pie dish. Fold over any excess and crimp edges if necessary. Use a fork to poke holes in the bottom of the pie crust. Then, gently press aluminum foil against the dough. Bake for 25 minutes, adding pie weights or dried beans.
- Remove the shell from the oven. Carefully remove foil and pie weights. Bake the crust for another 10-15 minutes, or until it is golden brown. Allow to cool completely on a rack.
- Add milk and chocolate to medium saucepan on medium heat. Stir frequently until the chocolate is melted. Do not boil. Allow to cool.
- Combine the cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl. Keep aside until you are ready to use.
- Use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a large bowl to beat the egg yolks and sugar on medium-high speed, until they are thickened and pale yellow. Mix in the cocoa powder mixture. Slowly add the milk mixture to the mixer at low speed.
- Place the contents of your stand mixer bowl into a medium saucepan. Heat on medium. Slowly whisk the mixture until it becomes thickened. This should take approximately 6-8 minutes.
- Don't overheat. As it cools, the pudding will begin to thicken. Stir in the butter and vanilla. Allow to cool on a rack for a few minutes.
- Place the pudding in the cooked pie shell. Smoothen the top using an offset spatula. Let it cool on the counter for a while. Place in a plastic wrap and place in the fridge. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or until it is completely chilled. Enjoy with whipped cream.
