THE BEST CHOCOLATE RUM PIE EVER!!!

Steps:

Place pie in refrigerator Topping: Whip the rest of the cream with 2 tbsp of powdered sugar and rum until there are stiff peaks. Spoon or use an icing bag to put whipped cream on pie. Alternative Ideas: *Chocolate shavings on top of pie *Chocolate sticks on each slice of pie *Instead of placing whipped cream on top of pie you could fold the whipped cream into the filling.

GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE RUM PIE

Steps:

• Pre-bake a 10-inch pie crust (see links in Recipe Notes) and allow it to cool completely before filling.
• To make the pie filling, combine 1/2 cup sugar, gelatin and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir in milk and egg yolks. Place over medium-low heat; cook and stir until slightly thickened. Remove from heat, add chocolate chips and stir until melted. Add rum and stir. Chill until partially set. (I often use an ice bath, stirring occasionally, to speed this process).
• Once chocolate mixture has cooled, beat egg whites with a standing or handheld mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar; continue beating until stiff peaks form. Fold chocolate mixture into egg whites,
• In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until combined.
• Add 1/2 of chocolate mixture to prepared pie crust; top with 1/2 of whipped cream. Repeat so that you have 4 layers. Using a rubber spatula, carefully swirl the layers into a marble pattern. Cover and chill until firm - several hours or overnight.
• To serve: Beat 1 cup whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until combined. Cut pie into 8 slices and serve each with a generous dollop of whipped cream.

THE BEST CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Whip 1 cup of the heavy cream to soft peaks in a medium bowl (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
• Add the egg, egg yolks, sugar, espresso powder, vanilla extract, salt and 1 tablespoon water to a medium heatproof bowl and whisk to combine. Set the bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Whisk constantly until the mixture is pale, hot to the touch and has almost doubled in volume, about 4 to 6 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, if necessary. Remove from the heat and continue whisking until cooled, about 2 minutes.
• Put the chopped chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl and set over the saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Stir occasionally with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and gently stir for about 3 minutes to cool slightly.
• Whisk the egg mixture into the melted chocolate in 3 additions until combined. (The mixture may get very thick.) Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in 3 additions until it is fully incorporated. It is important that the chocolate mixture is not warm to ensure that it combines smoothly with the whipped cream without seizing up.
• Divide the chocolate mousse among four 4-ounce ramekins and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
• Whip the remaining 3/4 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Top each chocolate mousse with whipped cream and serve. (For a softer texture, allow the ramekins to sit at room temperature while you whip the cream.)

CHOCOLATE-PECAN-RUM PIE

Steps:

• Grease a nine-inch pie pan.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, two teaspoons sugar, the cinnamon and allspice. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually sprinkle in the ice water while lightly kneading the dough by hand until it holds together. Gather into a ball, wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate for one hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Roll out the dough to one-eighth-inch thickness. Line the prepared pan, trimming the extra dough at the top. Spread the pecans and chocolate chips on the bottom.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, remaining sugar, eggs, corn syrup, vanilla extract, lemon zest and nutmeg. Pour into the pan.
• Bake for 15 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top begins to brown and the center is almost set. Remove, sprinkle with rum and cool. Serve at room temperature with some whipped cream, if desired.
