• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 ounces semisweet chocolate
• 1 1⁄2 ounces dark chocolate
• 3⁄4 cup granulated sugar
• 6 ounces unsalted butter (room temperature)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• 1 (9 1/2 inch) pie crusts (cooled)
• 1⁄2 cup whipped cream (for garnish)
• 1⁄4 cup chocolate (shaved for garnish)
• 8 raspberries (for garnish)

directions

1. Place semi-sweet & dark chocolate pieces in a bain-marie (double boiler), stirring occasionally until melted.
2. Meantime, in a bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine sugar and butter. Cream ingredients on speed 3 until fluffy, about 3 minutes; set aside.
3. When chocolate is melted, pour in the butter mixture. Add vanilla and process until well mixed, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl. Add one egg at a time and process for 5 minutes before adding another egg which makes it creamier and lighter.
4. Pour the mixture into the cooled prepared pie crust, smooth out the surface using a spatula and place it on a baking sheet lined with silicone mat to prevent from sliding. Transfer to the fridge to chill, about 4 hours. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, sprinkle some shaved chocolate and place a raspberry per slice.
