Village Inn French Silk Pie Copycat Recipes

CHOCOLATE FRENCH SILK PIE (COPYCAT BAKERS SQUARE'S FRENCH SILK)

Steps:

• Bake a pie crust or use a Mrs. Smiths frozen crust and make according to package directions.
• Beat sugar and butter until sugar is not grainy (this can take up to 15-20 mins on med-high speed using an electric mixer).
• Add chocolate and vanilla. Add eggs, two at a time, beating 5 minutes after each addition.
• Pour into cooled pie crust. Chill 2 hours or until firm.
• Before serving, top with whipped cream and a little grated chocolate.

PEANUT BUTTER SILK PIE

Steps:

• Whip the butter & peanut butter until light and fluffy.
• Add the sugar & vanilla, whip until combined.
• Add the eggs ONE at a time, beating for 3 minutes after each egg. (This is important for it to be fluffy!) Scrape the bowl between each egg.
• Nuke the whipping cream for 45 seconds to 1 minute (it should be very hot.)
• Add the 1/2 cup of choc chips, let melt and whisk together until smooth. Pour the ganache into the bottom of your cooled pie crust.
• Top with the pb mixture, refrigerate.
• Let it chill for 3 hours (overnight is even better), drizzle with caramel sauce, garnish with whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate chips.

FRENCH SILK PIE WITHOUT EGGS

Steps:

• Mix together sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan until well blended. Stir in milk gradually. Turn heat to medium and stir constantly until boiling. Remove from heat.
• Add chocolate chips and vanilla extract to the hot milk mixture; stir until smooth and chocolate chips have melted. Transfer into a large mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and place on the counter until cooled to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, combine 2 cups whipping cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
• Uncover cooled chocolate mixture and beat with clean beater attachments until light and fluffy. Gently fold 1/2 of the whipped cream mixture into the chocolate mixture, being careful not to overmix. Spoon into pie crust and top with remaining whipped cream. Refrigerate until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Serve.
