Instructions

Prepare the crust

Step 1

To make the crust, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs (use this chocolate cookie recipe), Domino® Light Brown Sugar, butter and vanilla in a large bowl and mix with a flexible spatula (or your hands) until fully incorporated. Or you can place all of the ingredients in a food processor and process until combined.

Step 2

Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate and, using your hands (or the back of a one cup dry measuring cup), evenly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the plate. Transfer to the freezer while you make the filling.

Prepare the filling

Step 3

To make the filling, add the cream cheese and Domino® Dark Brown Sugar to the bowl of a food processor and process just until smooth. Do not over mix or the cream cheese will lose its structure.

Step 4

Add the cocoa powder, heavy cream, salt, and vanilla and process until smooth, scraping down the bowl if necessary.

Step 5

Transfer the filling to the frozen crust, using an offset spatula to smooth the top, and place in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours until firm.

Prepare the topping

Step 6

To make the topping, add the heavy cream, Domino® Confectioners Sugar, and vanilla to the clean processor bowl and process until stiff and “whipped,” about 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 7

Spread the whipped cream over the pie and serve.

Additional Tip


The pie will keep in the refrigerator lightly wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 3 days.

Make sure you finely grind your crumbs for your cookie crust. A food processor works best, but you can also place the cookies in a zippered plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. When making the filling, do not over process the cream cheese or it will lose structure.
