Chocolate Candy Bar Pie - Anyone Want a Slice of Chocolate Candy Bar Pie?

I'm sure every one of us has experienced the situation where unexpected company drops by right around suppertime. You welcome your guests, but in the back of your mind you're thinking, "okay, what will I serve for dinner?" A great hostess will be able to pull something together in no time, right? So, dinner? No problem, because you always make more than enough. Dessert? Well if you have a Chocolate Candy Bar Pie sitting in your freezer, then you've got that covered, too!

My mother is from Germany and has taught me from little on that a meal isn't complete unless you have something sweet to finish it off. Not too great for the waistline but my taste buds say thank you every time.

In order to be prepared for impromptu guests or coffee with the girls, I try to keep this great tasting pie in the freezer at all times:

Chocolate Candy Bar Pie:
Ingredients:

1/2 cup milk
1 (4-ounce) chocolate bar with almonds
18 large marshmallows
1/2 pint heavy whipping cream
1 prepared graham cracker crust

Directions:

In the top of a double boiler (a stainless steel mixing bowl over a pan of boiling water can be used if you do not have a double boiler) melt the chocolate bar, milk and marshmallows.

Whip the whipping cream in a bowl until stiff and fold this into the chocolate mixture. Pour into the crust and refrigerate until cool. When cool, store in freezer until time to serve. At the start of dinner remove the pie from the freezer and set on counter top. The pie should be thawed by the time the meal is over and its time for dessert.

Another great thing about this pie recipe is that it only requires 4 ingredients plus the pie crust and if stored in a freezer container, can be kept frozen indefinitely.
