S'Mores Pie

Camping as a girl scout was truly fun and quite an adventure.  Of course, s'mores were the requisite dessert each evening of our camping trips!  Here's a version of s'mores pie that I adapated from an online recipe at pixelatedecrumb.  The result was luscious chocolatey creaminess that brought back those memories of camp!



Ingredients:
Graham cracker crust
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 16 whole graham cracker rectangles)
  • 8 tablespoons butter (1 stick), melted
Chocolate filling
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 12-ounce package semisweet chocolate mini morsels
  • 2 eggs, whicked
  • 1/2 bag of large marshmallows
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, blend graham cracker crumbs and melted butter.  Press mixture into a 9-inch pie plate.  Bake for 10 minutes until lightly browned.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together cream and milk.  Warm over medium-low heat.  Add in chocolate morsels and stir until chocolate has melted and is smooth.  Slowly add the whisked eggs and mix until smooth.
  • Pour the chocolate filling into baked pie crust.  Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chocolate filling is set and does not wiggle when pie is lightly shaken.  Remove from oven.
  • Using kitchen shears, cut marshmallows in  half.  Place  halves in concentric circles over the top of the pie until it is covered. 
  • Set oven to broil.  Place pie under the broiler and lightly roast the marshmallows.  Watch those marshmallows closely!  It only took about a minute for mine to toast!
  • Chill the pie in the refrigerator to set for at least two to three hours.
  • To serve, cut the cold pie into slices.  It can be eaten cold, but it's best when slightly warm... heat the slices in a microwave for a few seconds before serving.
