Gluten-Free French Silk Pie

Prep Time 30 minutes
Resting Time 2 hours
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: French

Ingredients
  

  • 1 gluten-free pie crust pre-baked and cooled, or cookie crust
  • 1 stick salted butter softened
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2 oz unsweetened chocolate melted and cooled (that’s 2 squares)
  • 2 small or medium eggs room temp (If you’re using large eggs: use 1 whole egg + 1 yolk.)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Semi-sweet chocolate for curls optional but lovely

Method
 

  1. Cream together softened butter and sugar until fluffy.
  2. Mix in the cooled melted chocolate, vanilla, and salt.
  3. Beat in one egg at a time for five full minutes each. (This is what makes it silky!)
  4. Pour into your crust and chill for several hours or overnight.

Notes

Serve with coffee, an after-dinner apéritif, or a vintage French film playing in the background. 💁‍♀️🇫🇷
