S'mores Pie with Marshmallow Meringue Topping
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/4 cups of semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup of water
- 4 large egg whites
- 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Place 1 1/4 cups of semisweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl and pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let it sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let it cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Continue to cook, without stirring, until the syrup reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer.
- While the syrup is cooking, place 4 large egg whites and 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. With the mixer running, slowly pour the hot syrup into the egg whites. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and continue to beat until the meringue is thick and glossy, about 7-8 minutes.
- Spread the marshmallow meringue over the cooled pie, making sure to seal the edges. Use a kitchen torch to lightly brown the meringue. Alternatively, place the pie under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!
