Can a recipe for a chocolate pie be healthy?

Yes, a pie can be healthy! My homemade chocolate pie recipe is made with simple, real food ingredients. This pie tastes better than store-bought!

How do you thicken chocolate pie filling?

This pie has a very thick chocolate pie filling so there is no need to make it thicker with cornstarch or baking. You can slice it immediately or chill it for about an hour for it to fully set.

Can you freeze chocolate pie?

I haven’t made this pie ahead of time and frozen it. You can definitely do that with Homemade Pie Crust , but I’d likely make the filling either the day before or shortly before serving. If you do make this chocolate pie ahead of time, make sure to use plastic wrap when you cover it in the fridge, so it doesn’t get a film on top of the pudding!

What size pie plate do you use for a chocolate pie?

This chocolate pie recipe will work best for a 9-inch pie pan. If you have a smaller pie dish, you can always refrigerate any leftover filling in small bowls in the fridge – it’s a yummy fudgy pudding on its own!

6 Tbsp butter, cold and cubed

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Make the Crust (Can be prepared ahead of time):

Preheat oven to 400F.
Combine flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the paddle attachment, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time JUST until the mixture comes together to form a ball.
Breaking off a piece about the size of a golf ball, pat the crust into the bottom and sides of a pie pan.
Bake in the oven for 18-22 min.

Prepare the Filling:

In a food processor or blender (this is the blender I have), combine all the ingredients except the dark chocolate.
In a small bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave on high for 20 seconds. Stir well. If the chocolate isn’t entirely melted, place it back in the microwave for 5 seconds and stir well.
Add the melted chocolate to the other ingredients and process or blend on high for about 15-20 seconds.

Fill the Pie:

Fill the pie. When your crust is ready and cool, pour the filling into the crust and smooth it with a spatula.

Chill. (read notes)

Notes

You can also use a graham cracker crust instead of the baked pie crust.
Chill (optional). This filling is super thick and you’ll be able to slice into it right away. I personally like to let it chill for about an hour first.
Store this in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days wrapped in plastic wrap or an airtight container.
