    Notes

    I used Hershey's Dark Chocolate Bars in the filling and on top of the pie.
     
    Can also use a pre-made graham cracker crust or make one:
    1. For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    2. Crush the crackers in a food processor or resealable bag. Pour them into a bowl and stir in the melted butter and sugar. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly

      Hi Jade! No worries, no milk or cream in the actual pudding. It's smooth, creamy, rich and decadent. 🙂

      Hi Kim! I have one more question...so sorry! I just want to be sure I do this perfectly for our special anniversary dinner 🙂 so, its just, basically, eggs, chocolate and butter...correct? No milk like other cream pie fillings? So I'm curious about the texture....I'm guessing super yummy and dense and decadent?
      Thanks...dumb questions I know, I just have a million things going and want to be sure I'm not just overlooking something big like a bunch of milk 🙂
      Thanks again!!!

      3 days in advance covered in saran wrap or freeze up to 2 months is good, sealed well! Sounds like you're going to have some good yummies to celebrate! Happy Special Family Day to all!! xo

      This pie looks amazing!
      I have a question... I was going to make this with a chocolate cookie crust. So was curious how far ahead I can make this? On May 30th, 2021 my husband and I celebrate our 30th anniversary:) but our whole marriage its been something we also celebrate with our son..special family day. But my son loves chocolate and LOVES any sort of pie type thing, but not my husband. My husband likes vanilla or fruit or caramel so I've already planned to make him a caramel cake with a caramel Swiss buttercream. But wanted something decadent and dark chocolate for our son. Do to being out of work still and for so long, we can't buy gifts 🙁 so I'm just hoping I can make a decent meal with a fun special dessert for each of them at least. This sounds wonderful! I have rheumatoid arthritis and lots of other health issues making movement difficult, so was hoping to make this a bit early, along with the caramel cake, so that I won't be in too too much pain or too tired on our actual anniversary. But if it will get too hard or break down fast then I'll make it closer to Sunday.
      Thanks so much!!

      I have been making this pie for a couple of years now. It is my son's favorite. I actually split the recipe and do some unsweetened, and some white chocolate then swirl them. But I do cut back the sugar as this is very sweet otherwise.

      OMG Best chocolate pie in our solar system! This was sinful. I'm not a cook, but it made me look great. I used about a cup of Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate chips (60% cacao) and it was SO GOOD. Thanks for what will be a favorite recipe.
