Gathering these ingredients is the first step to crafting your perfect S'mores Chocolate Pie. Enjoy the process and get ready for a treat that everyone will love! {{ingredient_image_2}} Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is the first step to warm up your kitchen for baking. A hot oven helps the pie bake evenly. In a medium pan, mix heavy cream and milk chocolate chips over low heat. Stir constantly with a spatula until the chocolate melts and the mix is smooth. This step is vital for a creamy filling. Remove the pan from heat to avoid burning the chocolate. In a large bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. You want the mixture to be well combined and slightly frothy. Slowly pour the warm chocolate mix into this bowl, stirring all the time. This combines the flavors and creates a rich filling. Carefully pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to spread it evenly. This ensures every bite is delicious. Place the pie in your preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes. The edges should set, but the center should still be a bit fudgy. This texture is key for a perfect S'mores pie. Once baked, take the pie out and sprinkle mini marshmallows on top. Return the pie to the oven and switch to broil. Watch it closely for 1-2 minutes, until the marshmallows turn golden brown. This gives the pie a toasted look. Let the pie cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This cooling time helps it firm up while keeping a gooey center. After cooling, sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for extra crunch. Add chocolate shavings for decoration. Now, slice the pie and serve it either at room temperature or chilled. Enjoy your delicious S'mores Chocolate Pie! To create a creamy filling, avoid scorching the chocolate. Heat the heavy cream on low. Stir the chocolate chips in until they melt. This keeps the mixture smooth. If you see lumps, keep stirring. Remove it from heat as soon as it’s smooth. This will help you get that perfect creamy texture. When broiling marshmallows, keep a close watch. Place the pie on the top rack of your oven. Broil for just 1-2 minutes. The marshmallows can burn quickly. If you see them turning dark, take the pie out. You want them golden, not charred, for a sweet finish. Serve your S'mores Chocolate Pie with a dollop of whipped cream. This adds a nice lightness. A drizzle of chocolate sauce on top makes it even better. The contrast of flavors brings joy with every bite. Enjoy this treat at room temperature or chilled for the best experience. Pro Tips Use High-Quality Chocolate: For the best flavor, opt for high-quality milk chocolate chips. The chocolate's richness will significantly enhance the overall taste of your pie. Monitor the Broiling: When broiling the marshmallows, keep a close eye on them. They can go from perfectly toasted to burnt in just a few seconds, so be ready to pull them out at the right moment. Chill for Better Slicing: If you prefer clean slices, refrigerate the pie for a couple of hours before serving. This will help the filling firm up even more and make slicing easier. Add a Layer of Flavor: Consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate mixture for a delicious contrast to the sweetness of the marshmallows and graham crackers. {{image_4}} For a gluten-free S'mores Chocolate Pie, choose a gluten-free graham cracker crust. You can find pre-made options in stores. If you prefer to make your own, crush gluten-free cookies like almond or coconut cookies. Mix them with melted butter to form a crust. Press the mixture firmly into your pie dish. This will give you that classic graham cracker taste without gluten. Want to jazz up your pie? Try adding peanut butter to the chocolate filling. Simply mix in half a cup of creamy peanut butter while melting the chocolate. It adds a rich, nutty flavor that pairs wonderfully with the chocolate. You can also use flavored chocolate, like caramel or hazelnut. Just swap the milk chocolate chips for your favorite flavored ones. This small change can create a whole new dessert experience. Looking for a lighter version? You can substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or Greek yogurt. This swap keeps the pie creamy while cutting down on fat. You can also use a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit instead of granulated sugar. This helps lower the sugar content. Lastly, consider using egg whites instead of whole eggs. This will help reduce calories while still giving you a great texture. Enjoy your healthier treat without losing flavor! To keep your S'mores Chocolate Pie fresh, store it in the fridge. Wrap it tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This helps lock in moisture and keeps the flavors intact. You can also place leftovers in an airtight container. The pie will last for about 3 to 4 days in the fridge. To enjoy your pie warm, reheat it in the oven. Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie on a baking sheet and heat for about 10 minutes. This warms the chocolate filling and slightly melts the marshmallows. Avoid the microwave, as it can make the crust soggy. You can freeze S'mores Chocolate Pie for later enjoyment. First, let it cool completely. Wrap it in plastic wrap, then in foil to prevent freezer burn. It can last up to 2 months in the freezer. When you're ready to eat it, transfer it to the fridge overnight to thaw. After thawing, you can reheat it in the oven for the best taste. Yes, you can use dark chocolate. It will make the pie richer and less sweet. Dark chocolate has a bold flavor that pairs well with marshmallows. If you prefer a sweeter pie, consider adding a bit more sugar. The pie lasts about four days in the fridge. Make sure to cover it well to keep it fresh. Check for any signs of spoilage before serving. If it looks or smells off, it’s best to toss it. Absolutely! You can make this pie a day ahead. Just store it in the fridge after it cools. This helps the flavors blend well. If you plan to add toppings, wait until just before serving. You can serve whipped cream or vanilla ice cream alongside. Fresh berries add a nice touch, too. A drizzle of chocolate sauce on top makes it even more delightful. These pairings enhance the overall experience of the pie. Check for a set edge and a slightly soft center. The filling should look a bit fudgy. If the edges are firm and the center jiggles a little, it’s good to go. Just remember to watch the marshmallows closely when broiling! You now have all the steps to make a delicious S’mores Chocolate Pie. From the tasty ingredients to tips for storing leftovers, each part is important. Bake at 350°F, create a creamy filling, and enjoy golden marshmallows on top. Try out variations for gluten-free options or add new flavors. Remember, this pie can be made in advance and stored easily. I hope you feel excited to create this treat and share it with others. Enjoy every bite!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pre-made graham cracker pie crust
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers
  • 1/4 cup chocolate shavings

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Begin by setting your oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
  • Prepare the Chocolate Filling: In a medium saucepan set over low heat, combine the heavy cream and milk chocolate chips. Stir constantly with a spatula until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Once all the chocolate has melted, remove the saucepan from the heat to prevent scorching.
  • Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy. Gradually pour the warm melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring continuously until fully blended and homogenous.
  • Pour into Crust: Carefully pour the luscious chocolate filling into the prepared graham cracker pie crust, using a spatula to spread and smooth the surface evenly.
  • Bake the Pie: Place the pie in your preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. You're looking for the filling to be set around the edges but still slightly fudgy in the center.
  • Add Marshmallows: After baking, take the pie out of the oven and promptly sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the top. Return the pie to the oven and switch to broil for 1-2 minutes, watching it closely to prevent burning, until the marshmallows turn a beautiful golden brown.
  • Cool Down: Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes. This will help it firm up nicely while retaining its gooey texture.
  • Garnish: Once the pie has cooled, sprinkle the crushed graham crackers generously over the top for added texture, and finish it off with beautiful chocolate shavings to enhance its presentation.
  • Serve: Carefully slice the pie into wedges and serve it either at room temperature or chilled for a delightful treat.
