Now am I talking your love language? The recipe can easily be doubled to serve a crowd, or have one pie for home and one to take to work!

chocolate pie healthified ingregI have made a lot of chocolate pies through the years. A lot. But when I made this chocolate pie my Chief Culinary Consultant said several times “great pie honey!”  Now it is true, I cook for compliments.  The Chief knows this and knows he will get this pie again, anytime he asks! 🙂

chocolate pudding pieIt is so easy to mix up the fat-free, sugar-free pudding.  If you haven’t ever tried it, you should. It is surprisingly rich and luscious. Quite often I will just make the fat-free, sugar-free pudding, top with a dollop of whipped cream and dessert is ready!

chocolate pie x 2The pie needs to chill from 4 to 24 hours before serving.  I actually hurried the process and didn’t have quite 4 hours before serving but the slices still cut pretty well.  Top with raspberries, chocolate shavings and a dollop of whip cream for the crowning touch!
