directions
- This recipe will make two 9 inch pies or one deep dish 9 inch pie.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F/ 176°C.
- To make the filling, beat the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl until smooth.
- Whisk the eggs, Baileys, and vanilla until just blended.
- Beat the egg mixture into cream cheese mixture.
- Grate the chocolate finely or melt before adding to the cheese mixture.
- Divide the filling between the crust-lined pans.
- Bake until the edges of the filling are puffed and dry-looking and the center is just set, about 50-60 minutes but it does depend on your oven so keep an eye on it.
- To make the topping, mix the sour cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and Baileys in a small bowl.
- The mixture should be easily spreadable, not soupy but it shouldn't be too stiff either.
- If it's too runny, just add more powdered sugar to get the proper consistancy.
- Divide it between the cakes and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate until well chilled, about 6 hours.
- This may be prepared one day ahead and be sure to keep it well covered.
- Garnish however you wish.
- My favorite is to drizzle chocolate sauce over it.
- Keep it refrigerated and serve cold.

My name is Ami and I share my home with my husband, Carey, our two small sons, James and Charles and our daughters Meradydd (it's pronounced Meradith)and Kathrynn. Until recently, I was a Specialist in the National Guard. I'm pretty eclectic in my studies and I've learned a lot becuase of that since I don't limit myself. Right now I'm taking classes for animal care. I've also been studying a lot about herbalism and really enjoy learning about that. My mother and I also run a home based business for natural soap, balms, etc. We use only the most the natural ingredients available. I'm also a Mary Kay consultant. Busy, huh? :D I love to read and learn new things. My husband says our books will be the death of us. LOL. I love to cook and experiment. I also like to take walks, rain or not.
