Directions
Make a double batch of Pudding.
Chill thoroughly.
This pudding will be extremely thick.
Make or purchase your favorite pie shell.
Whip cream with confectioner’s sugar and vanilla extract until thick and fluffy.
Take ½ of the whipped cream and add to the chocolate pudding.
Because the pudding is so thick, you will probably want to use an electric mixer for this task.
Mix until all of the whipped cream is thoroughly incorporated.
Fill pie shell with the pudding-whipped cream mixture.
Place remaining whipped cream into a piping bag and pipe onto top of pie.
Shave bittersweet chocolate on top as garnish.
Cover pie and place into refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours to allow the cornstarch that is in the confectioner’s sugar to set.
Comments
This recipe has changed slightly over time. It’s obviously easier to make pudding from a mix but is the end result equal in texture and taste to the original made from scratch pudding ?
