Recipe Description
Chocolate Bavarian Pie…a smooth chocolate taste with a crunchy graham cracker crust. Amazing ! This pie is cool, smooth and luscious. But that’s what happens when you mix cream with chocolate. A Bavarian cream is a cold custard made with cream,gelatin and various fruit purees or chocolate. You could make this with a pastry crust as well as a graham cracker crust. I choose graham cracker for the crunch factor. This was a very easy recipe, I made the graham cracker crust first and let it cool. The Bavarian filling was simple to put together, the longest time period in the recipe was waiting for the cooked chocolate filling to set up into a… mounds when dropped from a spoon consistency before adding the whipped cream. The recipe says, let the chocolate cool until almost set. I’ve worked with gelatin before , the best way to describe when the gelatin is set enough, is when it mounds when dropped from a spoon. You can make this a frozen treat by simply putting the finished pie in the freezer for 4 – 6 hours or overnight. Take it out of the freezer and let sit 10 to 15 minutes before cutting. You can make this recipe using little tarts or layer the filling in parfaits. Whatever form you choose to serve it, this is one luscious treat you will LOVE!! Enjoy!
