S'MORE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and salt for the crust, and press into the bottom of a springform pan.
• Mix graham cracker crumbs, condensed milk, chocolate chips, baking powder, and salt for the graham brownie in a large bowl until well combined. Gently spread on top of graham cracker crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is dry, about 30 minutes. Remove pie from the oven and set aside to cool slightly. Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, whisk together sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt for the chocolate custard in a saucepan. Gradually whisk in milk. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 2 minutes more. Pour beaten egg gradually into the chocolate custard, stirring as you pour. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla extract.
• Pour chocolate custard over the baked pie. Arrange regular marshmallows on top of the pie and sprinkle miniature marshmallows to fill in any gaps.
• Bake until marshmallows are lightly browned, about 5 minutes; keep an eye on it because you do not want marshmallows to melt.
• Place cream for chocolate ganache in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High until hot, making sure it doesn't bubble over, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Mix in chocolate, butter, and coffee granules. Microwave for another 30 seconds then stir until smooth. Let sit until it thickens, 15 to 20 minutes. Drizzle chocolate ganache over the pie.

4-INGREDIENT S'MORES PIE

• Combine the chocolate chips and cream in a large microwave-safe bowl and heat for 2 1/2 minutes. Stir until completely smooth (the chocolate may appear separated at first, but just keep stirring). Pour into the prepared pie crust, loosely cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Use kitchen shears to cut each marshmallow in half, on a bias, from one corner to the opposite corner. Arrange the marshmallow halves, cut-side down, on top of the chilled pie. Broil until golden, watching closely and rotating the pan as needed, about 1 minute. Let the pie cool completely, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and return to the fridge until the ganache sets again, 1 to 2 hours.

SMORES CHOCOLATE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• To make the crust, add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt to a large bowl and stir to combine.Add the melted butter and stir until well combined and crumbly.Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan and spread the crumbs around so that they are evenly dispersed.Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
• To make the filling, whisk the cornstarch, sugar and salt together in a medium sized saucepan,.
• Add the egg yolks, milk and heavy cream and whisk to combine.
• Heat over medium heat while whisking constantly until the mixture starts to bubble around the edges and thicken to a pudding like consistency.
• Remove mixture from the heat and stir in the chocolate, butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until combined and all the chocolate and butter is melted. The mixture should be smooth.
• Pour mixture into the prepared pie crust. Smooth the top. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 5-6 hours, or until completely cool and firm.
• For the topping, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the regular sized marshmallows halves around the top of the pie, then fill in the additional space with the mini marshmallows.
• Bake for 3-4 minutes or until marshmallows get puffy, then turn to broil on low for 2-4 minutes, depending on how browned you want it.
• You can serve this pie warm right out of the oven or after it has cooled. I personally like it warm - it's more s'mores-like. The filling will still be cool, but not as cold.
• Store the pie well covered in the fridge. You can warm individual slices back up a touch in the oven or microwave, if desired. Be aware that the sticky marshmallows can be tough to cut through. You could also use a meringue topping, if you'd like something that's easier to slice. I'd recommend the topping from this cheesecake.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE S'MORE PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray the inside of a 9-inch pie pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture firmly into sprayed pie pan, covering bottom and sides. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For filling: In a microwave safe bowl, combine milk chocolate chips, 1/2 cup condensed milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Microwave for 2 minutes on medium (50 percent) power. Alternately, combine all ingredients and melt in a double boiler. Stir until all chips are melted and pour into bottom of cooled crust. Set in refrigerator while preparing second layer.
• For second layer, repeat above process using the vanilla chips. Pour over milk chocolate layer. Set in refrigerator while preparing third layer. For third layer repeat above process using the dark chocolate chips. Pour over white chocolate layer.
• Preheat the broiler. Evenly cover top with miniature marshmallows. Place under broiler for a few minutes just until marshmallows are lightly browned. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.

S'MORES CHOCOLATE PIE {OR TART}

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the crust, combine all the ingredients together in a small bowl and stir until the graham cracker crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate or 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until just lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• For the filling, add the chocolate to a medium bowl. Heat the cream (in a saucepan or microwave) until it starts to steam and small bubbles form at the edges. Pour the cream over the chocolate and let sit for 1-2 minutes. Stir to combine well; it will look separated and grainy as you first start to stir, but eventually it will combine into a glorious, glossy, thick mixture. Stir in the vanilla and salt.
• Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled crust and spread evenly. Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour (or up to overnight). About an hour before serving (can do this up to 2-3 hours in advance), preheat the oven broiler and place an oven rack 5-7 inches away from the heating element.
• Cover the top of the pie with the cut marshmallows (cut side down). Broil the pie until the marshmallows puff and turn golden, about 1 minute, turning the pie several times to evenly brown the marshmallows. KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE PIE THE WHOLE TIME- it can go from beautiful to burned in a matter of seconds!
• Let the pie rest at room temp for about an hour or pop in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to allow the chocolate layer to set up after being broiled. The pie can be refrigerated (or left at room temp) for 2-3 hours after the marshmallows have been toasted. Any longer and the marshmallows might get stickier and kind of wet.
• Slice the pie into pieces with a sharp knife (dip it in hot water and wipe clean between slices for more even cutting) and serve.
