Directions

<ol class="no-list-style"><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 1</h4>Begin with the chocolate crust. Preheat your oven to 180°C. In a food processor, pulse the chocolate biscuits until they form fine crumbs. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the cocoa powder and sugar. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand and holds together when pressed.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 2</h4>Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of your pie dish. Use the back of a measuring cup to compact the crust – this prevents a crumbly texture after baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes until set and slightly fragrant. The short baking time helps set the butter in the crust, creating stability. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 3</h4>For the chocolate filling, place your finely chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Chopping the chocolate into small pieces ensures it melts quickly and evenly. Heat the cream in a saucepan until it just starts to simmer (tiny bubbles appear around the edges) – don't let it boil. Immediately pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit untouched for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 4</h4>Gently stir the chocolate and cream mixture with a silicone spatula, starting from the center and working outward in concentric circles until smooth and glossy. This gentle motion prevents air bubbles from forming in your ganache. Add the room temperature butter in small pieces and the vanilla extract, continuing to stir until fully incorporated. The butter enriches the ganache and gives it a silky texture.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 5</h4>Pour the ganache into the cooled crust and smooth the top with an offset spatula. Tap the pie dish gently on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight until the chocolate layer is completely set. The long chilling time allows the chocolate to develop its full flavor and firm texture.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 6</h4>For the raspberry cream, place the raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the raspberries break down and release their juices. The acid in the lemon juice helps intensify the raspberry flavor and color. Press the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, using the back of a spoon to extract as much puree as possible while leaving the seeds behind. Let cool completely.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 7</h4>In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to soft peaks. The cold temperature helps stabilize the whipped cream for better structure. Gently fold in 4-5 tablespoons of the cooled raspberry puree until just swirled through – don't overmix or you'll lose the beautiful raspberry ripple effect. Save any remaining puree for drizzling or other uses.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 8</h4>Once the chocolate layer is completely set, spread the raspberry cream over the top of the pie, creating decorative swirls with your spatula. For the most dramatic presentation, pile the cream higher in the center. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up the cream layer.</li><li class="MethodStepper"><h4 class="step-title">Step 9</h4>Just before serving, arrange fresh raspberries on top in a circular pattern or scattered artfully. Sprinkle with chocolate shavings and garnish with mint leaves if using. The contrast between the rich chocolate and fresh berries creates both visual appeal and flavor balance. For the cleanest slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts. Serve chilled but allow to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to fully bloom.</li></ol>

What ingredients are used in Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie Recipe?

This decadent pie requires chocolate digestive biscuits, butter, cocoa powder, dark chocolate, heavy cream, raspberries, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. The three distinct layers - chocolate crust, ganache filling, and raspberry cream - create a perfect balance of rich and refreshing flavours.

How to cook Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie Recipe at home?

Learn how to cook Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie by creating three distinctive layers: first bake a chocolate biscuit crust, then fill it with silky dark chocolate ganache that needs to set in the refrigerator. Finally, top with a homemade raspberry cream made from fresh berry purée folded into whipped cream, and garnish with fresh raspberries and chocolate shavings for an impressive dessert.

Can I make this chocolate and raspberry pie in advance?

Yes, this dessert is perfect for making ahead! The chocolate layer needs at least 4 hours to set, but the entire pie can be made up to 2 days in advance. Add the fresh raspberry garnish just before serving for the best appearance. The make-ahead quality makes it ideal for entertaining.

How do I prevent a soggy chocolate biscuit base?

To ensure a crisp chocolate biscuit base, bake the crust for 10-12 minutes after pressing it firmly into your pie dish. This short baking time sets the butter and creates stability. Additionally, ensure the crust is completely cooled before adding the ganache filling to maintain its texture.

What's the secret to creating smooth chocolate ganache?

For silky-smooth chocolate ganache, finely chop the chocolate to ensure even melting, use high-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa), and gently stir from the centre outward in concentric circles. Adding room temperature butter enriches the texture, while avoiding vigorous stirring prevents unwanted air bubbles.
