INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (9-inch) Oreo crust storebought
  • 9 ounces milk or dark chocolate bars I used Hershey’s
  • cup whole milk
  • cups mini marshmallows 16-20 large marshmallows
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • whipped cream optional topping

INSTRUCTIONS

  • In a medium microwave-safe bowl, place the broken chocolate bars and pour the milk over the top of the chocolate.
  • Microwave one minute, then stir and microwave at 15-second intervals until the chocolate and milk are smooth.
  • Add the marshmallows and microwave at 15-second intervals, stirring between each, until marshmallows are fully melted and incorporated.
  • Let the mixture cool on the counter, stirring occasionally, until room temperature. Or, to cool faster, place in the refrigerator, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes until room temperature, about 1 hour. Keep an eye on it, so it doesn't solidify.
  • Once the mixture is at room temperature, whip the cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the melted chocolate until fully combined and smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into the pie shell.
  • Cool for at least 3 hours in the refrigerator before serving. Add whipped cream on top before serving, if desired.

NOTES

  • Storage: Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 days.
  • It is VERY important that you don’t add the whipped cream to the chocolate mixture until the chocolate is cooled completely. If the chocolate is still warm, the pie will not set.
  • It took me about 30-40 minutes for the mixture to cool in the refrigerator.
    The melting can be done over a double boiler instead of in the microwave.
  • What are optional toppings? Homemade whipped cream, additional chocolate bar pieces, chocolate chips, toffee, Oreo crumbs, chocolate sprinkles, crushed candy canes.
  • What are substitutions I can make? Crust: try graham cracker crust for a s’mores pie or shortbread crust. Chocolate: substitute milk chocolate bars with 1 ½ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate bars.
