From Southern Living 2005, found on . I found this recipe online after my Dad requested a chocolate icebox pie. I have not tried it yet, just did not want to lose it! I will update after I try it! Cook time does not include chill time, which is at least 8 hours. Ingredients:
2/3 cup milk |
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate morsel |
1/4 cup cold water |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
3 large eggs, beaten |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
1 (6 ounce) ready-made chocolate crumb crusts |
1 cup whipping cream |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted |
1 (1 5/8 ounce) milk chocolate candy bars, chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat milk until it just begins to bubble around the edges in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat (do not boil). Remove from heat, and whisk in chocolate morsels until melted. Cool slightly.
2. Stir together cold water and cornstarch until dissolved.
3. Whisk cornstarch mixture, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and vanilla into chocolate mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. Boil 1 minute or until mixture thickens and is smooth. (Do not overcook.).
4. Remove from heat, and whisk in butter. Spoon mixture into piecrust. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
5. Beat whipping cream at high speed with an electric mixer until foamy; gradually add sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Spread whipped cream evenly over pie filling, and sprinkle with pecans and candy bar pieces.
