Notes


The "silk" in the name refers to the texture, provided the filling is beaten until the sugar is completely dissolved. It takes a long time to cream the butter and sugar properly, and 5 minutes after each egg is a minimum. We use a straight-sided 9 " cake pan and usually make at least 1-1/2 recipes of filling. In doing this the mixer is running almost continually for 30-40 minutes. I'm not sure it's possible to overbeat it, but I know that if it's not beaten long enough, it's grainy. For the crust, proceed as for a graham cracker crust, but use Nabisco chocolate wafers (don't remember the name); they're thin and crisp.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 (9-inch) baked pie crust, homemade or store bought
  • Cool Whip or or homemade whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Bake pie crust as instructed on package.
     
  2. In small bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add melted chocolate and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
     
  3. Add 2 eggs, two at a time, and beat 5 minutes. Add remaining egg and beat 5 more minutes.
     
  4. Pour mixture into crust (crust must be cool) and chill until set, about 3 hours.
     
  5. Spread with whipped cream if desired.

I love French silk pie, and I cannot wait to try my hand at this recipe. My husband will be excited too, because we received a pie recently that was not up to par. I hope I can make this right, because I will be honest I have never made a pie like this before. I am going to give it my best try though!

I really love this recipe for that french silk pie it's fantastic.
