How to make?
Ingredients
2 Tbsp
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips*
1/2 cup
2 cups mini marshmallows
1/3 cup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
1 store-bought Oreo pie crust
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
Chocolate shavings
Directions
Add butter, milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, bittersweet chocolate chips and marshmallows to a large saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly until chocolate and marshmallows have melted . Remove from heat, stir in vanilla pour into a large mixing bowl and let cool, about 45 - 60 minutes . Whip 1 3/4 cups heavy cream until very stiff peaks form. Fold into cool chocolate mixture. Pour chocolate mixture into Oreo crust and spread into an even layer . Chill in refrigerator 3 hours. For the topping, whip remaining 1 cup cream with sugar using an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Spread over pie, garnish with chocolate then cut into slices. Store pie in refrigerator. *I've also made this successfully with 1 cup milk chocolate chips and 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips for more of a milk chocolate flavor vs. the regular dark chocolate flavor it has. **To make chocolate shavings just run a vegetable peeler down the sides of a bar of chocolate.
