CHOCOLATE PUDDING PIE

Steps:

• Filling:
• Whisk sugar, cocoa powder, and cornstarch in a large saucepan to combine. Add eggs and egg yolks and whisk vigorously, making sure to get into corners of pan, until smooth. Whisk in milk, vanilla, and salt.
• Place saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer, whisking often and making sure to get into corners of pan, 8-10 minutes (mixture should be bubbling and thickened). Reduce heat and continue to simmer, whisking constantly, 3 minutes. Let pudding cool 5 minutes, whisking every minute.
• Add chocolate to pudding and whisk until melted and fully incorporated. Scrape filling into pie crust; smooth surface. Chill until cold and set, at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
• Assembly:
• Stir gelatin and 1 Tbsp. water in a small bowl. Let sit until solidified, about 5 minutes. Microwave in 5-second intervals until melted, or set in a bowl of very hot water and let sit until melted.
• Using an electric mixer, beat cream, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Add melted gelatin and beat until medium peaks form. Spoon whipped cream over filling, swirling as desired. Chill until set, about 1 hour. Dust with cocoa powder if desired.
• Do Ahead: Pie can be made 3 days ahead. Keep chilled.

RASPBERRY VANILLA PUDDING PIE WITH PEANUT BUTTER CRUST

Steps:

• For the crust: Combine the rice cereal, peanut butter and corn syrup in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix together on medium-low speed until the mixture is uniform and comes together into a ball. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish and pat into the bottom and up the sides to form an even crust. Set aside.
• For the pudding: Bring the half-and-half and vanilla to a simmer over low heat. Whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium bowl (the mixture will be pretty dry). While whisking constantly, slowly pour or ladle the hot half-and-half into the egg mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan, increase the heat to medium and cook, whisking, until the mixture thickens, the whisk leaves distinct trails and the mixture just starts to simmer at the edges of the pan, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain into a clean bowl. Stir in the butter.
• Pour the pudding into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Dot the top with spoonfuls of the strawberry jam and swirl through with the tip of a toothpick. Arrange the raspberries with their points facing upward around the edge of the pie where the pudding meets the crust. Refrigerate to set for at least 1 hour or overnight. Garnish with the mint if using.
