DARK CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE — A chocolate cookie crumb crust is loaded with a decadent cream cheese and dark chocolate filling. Serve with fresh fruit or whipped cream for a showstopping dessert everyone will rave about.
You guys! This Dark Chocolate Cream Pie is amazing! I confess, my 15 year-old son spotted the recipe and asked to make it for dessert. He really has an eye for delicious recipes, and once again, he picked a winner.
This Dark Chocolate Cream Pie is nothing but creamy chocolate goodness through and through. If you love chocolate, then this is definitely the pie for you!
Not only does it taste amazing, it sets up and slices beautifully. And it’s so easy to make! But everyone will think you spent hours in the kitchen.
I recommend serving it with some fresh berries and a dollop of whipped cream to cut the richness, although it’s perfectly delicious on it’s own.
Honestly, it’s almost too good to be true. This is the kind of pie I’d expect to be served in a fancy restaurant. Just make this one. You won’t regret it!
Here’s what you’ll need to make Smothered Chicken Burritos

I just made this today. I’m a pretty advanced baker even though I don’t really eat sweets, but let me just say this is the best dessert I’ve ever made. I cheated and used a premade Oreo crust (just too hot to turn on the oven). OMGoodness, sooooooo good, smooth, rich, the cream cheese made it perfect. I ate a giant piece and loved it! Thank you!
