ingredients

• Crust

• 1 1⁄2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
• 1⁄3 cup butter, melted

• Filling

• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped (I prefer milk chocolate)
• 1⁄2 cup evaporated milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon finely ground instant coffee
• white chocolate, for garnishment

directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9” pie plate.
2. Combine crust ingredients in a bowl. Stir with a fork to combine well. Pat evenly against bottom and sides of prepared pie plate. Bake in preheated oven 8-10 minutes. Cool.
3. For the filling, place ingredients in a heat-proof bowl. Bring a small amount of water to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat. Place bowl over water ensuring the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir occasionally until chocolate is melted and combined with the other ingredients. (Chocolate may be melted in the microwave in 30 second intervals, just until melted; stirring occasionally. Do not over microwave or the chocolate will seize.) Pour mixture into cooled pie crust. Refrigerate overnight.
4. Drizzle with melted white chocolate.
