Chocolate Dream Pie

An amazingly wonderful no-bake dessert, it's even better than French silk pie and easy to make. A cool and delicious chocolate experience.

Ingredients:
  • 2 3-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon cocoa
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1-1/2 cups whipping cream (see Note for alternative)
  • 1 prepared 9-inch pastry shell
Preparation:
  1. Cream together the softened cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer, letting the mixer run for 3 or 4 minutes on high speed.
  2. Gradually add the cocoa alternately with the milk, and beat until smooth.
  3. With the mixer running, gradually add the whipping cream, and beat until mixture is stiff.
  4. Pile filling into a prepared pie shell, and chill for several hours or overnight.

Note: An 8-ounce container of thawed whipped topping may be substituted for the whipping cream. However, it must be gently folded into, rather than beaten into, the cream cheese/cocoa mixture. Make this pie using the Standard Pie Pastry or Butter Pastry. Here are all of our pie crust recipes.
