Chocolate Truffle Pie (No Bake)
Last night, I just couldn’t sleep for the world. I finally gave up, & got out of bed to find something to keep me busy while I waited for that sleepy feeling to hit me. I turned on the television & found that one of my favorite movies, ‘Hairspray’ was on television. Something about John Travolta as a woman just cracks me up every time! I’m not one to just sit down & watch a good movie though. I have to be doing something! So, I looked around the kitchen to see what I had on hand, and what I could make with it. Grocery day is tomorrow though, so what we have on hand is very limited until then! After pondering for a few minutes, it hit me. Chocolate Truffle Pie! It requires very little ingredients, and those ingredients are usually ones that I have on hand. Plus, along with being incredibly rich & tasty – it’s quick! You with me on this one?
Here is what you need. (Click on the picture if you need a larger image)
In a medium, microwavable bowl – combine the chocolate chips & 3/4 cup of cream. Microwave in 30 second increments stirring each time, for a total of 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
Cool the chocolate cream mixture for about 10-15 minutes for it to come to room temperature. Stir in the vanilla & sifted confectioners sugar.
In a separate bowl, beat the remaining cup of heavy whipping cream until it forms a soft peak. Beat in the chocolate mixture 1/3 at a time on high speed. Pour into the pie crust.
Refrigerate for at least 8 hours before serving.

That looks AWESOME! I told hubby about it, and I might be trying to make one for Thanksgiving.
Mmmmm…my kind of dessert!! Sounds so delicious and looks lovely! Bring it by to link up today if you have a chance.
Looks yummy and fast I like that.I will definitely make this! Thanks!
What a rich looking pie and it looks like it has such a creamy texture to it. I think this would satisfy any chocolate craving with just a few bites.
OH my goodness! Your Chocolate Truffle Pie looks AMAZING!! The hardest part for me would be the “wait 8 hours” part 🙂
Thanks for sharing with Dr. Laura’s Tasty Tuesday!
I made this pie tonite and it was one of the best pies ever. It is melt in your mouth delicious. Try it, you will fall in love with it<3
I made this yesterday at 4. It’s now the next day at 5:23 a.m. and the pie is still moving. It’s been in the fridge for well over 8 hours. What’s going on???
This pie is very good, but very rich. It was a hit with my family. The
only bad thing I have to say is that it says to put it in the fridge for
at least 8 hours, 12 hours later and it was still soup. I put it in the
freezer for about 5 hours then moved it back to the fridge, and 2 hours
later it was jiggly again. My family did say they would want it again.
So it worked out.
