Chocolate Cream Pie

About
Chocolate cream pie is for those times when only a cool slice of chocolate and cream will do. A flaky pastry crust holds a smooth chocolate filling beneath a soft layer of whipped cream, with cocoa and chocolate curls giving the top its familiar chocolate-speckled finish.
The 9-inch pie arrives in its pie box, ready to slice and serve. Keep it chilled until dessert, then settle in for that first forkful of pastry, creamy chocolate filling, and cloud-soft topping.

Description
There is something wonderfully familiar about seeing a chocolate cream pie waiting on the dessert table. Beneath the soft, billowy cream topping is a deep chocolate filling tucked into a golden pastry crust, finished with cocoa and chocolate curls scattered across the top.
Cut into this 9-inch chocolate cream pie and the contrast is part of what makes it such a pleasure to eat. The crust gives each forkful a little structure before giving way to the smooth, soft chocolate center and cool cream on top, while the chocolate curls add those little extra bites of chocolate everyone hopes land on their slice.
Chocolate cream pie is especially nice served chilled, when the filling is cool and creamy and the topping is ready for a clean, generous spoonful with every piece. It is the kind of dessert that feels right after Sunday dinner, at a holiday table, or on an ordinary evening when everyone somehow finds room for pie. Some desserts come and go, but a chocolate cream pie has a way of looking like it belongs right where it is, in the middle of the table waiting for the first slice.
