Description
This rich and creamy chocolate cherry pie starts with a chocolate cookie crust and is filled with sweet cherry flavor—perfect for holidays or special occasions.
Ingredients
Crust:
1 ½ cups chocolate cookie crumbs
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup powdered sugar
(Assumed) 1–1½ cups cherry pie filling or pitted cherries (not listed—please confirm if this is correct or if there’s another filling component!)
Instructions
Make the Crust
In a bowl, mix chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set.
Prepare Whipped Cream
In a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
Assemble the Pie
Spread a layer of whipped cream into the chilled crust.
Spoon cherry pie filling evenly over the whipped cream layer.
Optionally, top with more whipped cream or chocolate shavings.
Chill & Serve
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours or until set. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
You can use store-bought chocolate cookie crust as a shortcut.
For a more intense chocolate flavor, add a few tablespoons of cocoa powder to the crust mixture.
Use fresh pitted cherries or homemade cherry compote for a more natural option.
