Directions: |
Directions:Put a large bowl in the freezer to chill (for beating the cream later). Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowel and heat until the chocolate melts, stirring every 30 seconds. Using a mixer, beat in the egg yolks into the melted chocolate. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until fluffy. Beat in the chocolate mixture and vanilla. Clean the beaters and beat the egg whites and sugar together until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate-cream cheese mixture. Pour the cream into the chilled bowl and beat until stiff (no need to clean the beaters). Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Spoon into prebaked pie shell and chill about 4 hours.
NOTE: This pie contains raw egg. To pasteurize large eggs, place them in a saucepan filled with water. Turn on the heat and bring the water up to 140 degrees. Keep the water temperature at 140 degrees for 3 minutes (and no more than 142 degrees), reducing the heat on the burner if necessary. Remove eggs from hot water and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Store in the refrigerator until needed or use right away. |
