Description
Indulge in the rich, creamy, and subtly spicy flavors of our Spicy Mexican Chocolate Silk Pie – a restaurant-quality dessert you can easily make at home.
Ingredients
– 12 ounces high-quality dark chocolate, chopped
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1/2 cup whole milk
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
– 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
– 1 pre-baked 9-inch pie crust
Instructions
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped chocolate, heavy cream, milk, sugar, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Pour the chocolate mixture into the pre-baked pie crust and smooth the top.
4. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days before serving.
Notes
For a bolder spice flavor, increase the cayenne pepper to 1/2 teaspoon. The pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
