Whoa! Move over Willy Wonka! Welcome to my dark chocolate fantasy.
Be warned... This Dark Chocolate Silk Pie is so smooth and chocolatey, it's criminal!
It's sinfully rich with an abundance of butter, sugar, eggs, and of course, the star of the show, "DARK CHOCOLATE" to make the most delectable pudding!
It's topped with yummy whipped cream and sprinkled with dark chocolate candy bar slivers.
Are you kidding me? (nope.)
I'm like in a chocolate coma. But, don't wake me. I'm in a chocolate state of mind, ya know? Chocoholics Unite!
Are you drooling yet? I've been there, done that. 🙂
You're gonna jump bail for this dark chocolate obsession! It's definitely a keeper!

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.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Patricia! That gluten free almond vanilla crust sounds AMAZING! 🙂 Thank you so much!!
I made this pie on Saturday and used a gluten free almond vanilla crust. It was AMAZING! The chocolate was so decadent and smooth.

From one Chocoholic to another, you are very welcome my dear! Thank you so much for favoriting this pie! 😀
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.
Sharai that is awesome! That makes my day!! xoxo
I made this pie for my birthday this weekend, it is delicious! Smooth and rich, it took longer to make than I anticipated with the wait time for things to cool, but this will be my go to chocolate pie recipe from now on!
Thank you Teresa! Nothing like chocolate pie! 🙂
