Chocolate Banana Cream Pie
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Intermediate
Total: 7 hr 10 min (includes cooling and chilling times)
Active: 45 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
For the crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (10 to 12 crackers)
1/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For the chocolate filling:
3/4 cup sugar
5 extra-large egg yolks
1/3 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 cups whole milk, scalded
7 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced
1 tablespoon coffee liqueur
1 teaspoon instant coffee powder
For the decoration:
2 large bananas, sliced
1 cup cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Milk chocolate, for garnish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
For the crust, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter in a bowl. Press the mixture into an 11-inch false-bottom tart pan, making sure the sides and the bottom of the crust are an even thickness. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool completely.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the sugar, egg yolks, cornstarch and salt. With the mixer on low, slowly add the scalded milk until the mixture is combined.
Pour the mixture into a large saucepan and cook over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture is very thick. Off the heat, add the chocolate, butter, coffee liqueur and coffee powder and stir until the chocolate is melted. Pour the filling into the cooled tart pan and smooth the top. Place plastic wrap directly on top of the chocolate filling and chill for 6 hours.
When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap from the chocolate and arrange the banana slices in concentric circles on top of the filling.
Place the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat until the cream forms firm peaks. Spoon the whipped cream on top of the bananas and gently spread the cream with a spatula to cover the pie, leaving a border of bananas visible at the outside edge. For a garnish, shave curls of milk chocolate on top of the whipped cream.
Remove the pie from the pan, place it on a cake plate and serve.

Recipe
Makes one 9-inch (23 cm) pie
Serves 8 to 10
Ingredients
Crust
1 ½ cups (270 g) chocolate cookie crumbs
¼ cup (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
Chocolate Cream
5 oz (150 g) semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 Tbsp (30 g) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
3 Tbsp (22 g) cornstarch
½ tsp (2.5 g) salt
1 1/4 cups (310 mL) 2% milk
1 ¼ cups (310 mL) 18% cream
6 large egg yolks
Topping
1 cup (250 mL) whipping cream
2 Tbsp (16 g) icing sugar, sifted
¼ tsp (1 mL) vanilla extract
Directions
1. For the crust, preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together until evenly combined and press this into a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then cool while preparing the filling.
2. For the filling, place the chocolate, butter and vanilla in a bowl with a strainer placed over it. Whisk the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepot. Whisk in the milk and cream and then the egg yolks and then bring this up to a simmer on medium heat while whisking constantly, until the mixture just begins to bubble and is glossy and thick (once it starts to thicken, it happens quickly.) Pour this through the strainer over the chocolate and butter and whisk until the chocolate and butter have melted. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the filling, cool to room temperature and then chill for at least 4 hours to set.
3. Once chilled, stir the filling gently and spoon this into the pie shell, spread to level it.
4. For the topping, whip the cream to a soft peak and whip in the icing sugar and vanilla. Spread this over the chocolate cream and serve.
The crust and chocolate cream can be prepared a full day in advance, but the topping should be made within 4 hours of serving.

Chocolate Pie Recipe:
1 DEEP DISH PIE CRUST
Chocolate Filling Ingredients:
1 cup SUGAR
2½ cups MILK
1 oz. UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE (shaved)
3 EGG yolks (reserve the egg whites for the meringue)
½ tsp SALT
5 Tbsp CORNSTARCH
½ tsp VANILLA EXTRACT
½ tsp ALMOND EXTRACT
Meringue Ingredients:
2 Tbsp SUGAR
1 Tbsp CORNSTARCH
½ cup WATER
3 EGG WHITES
¼ tsp CREAM OF TARTAR
then another 4 Tbsp SUGAR
Make your own pie crust from scratch, or to make the recipe super easy, just bake up a pre-made frozen pie crust.
Firstly, bake the crust and have it cooled and ready before beginning to make the chocolate pie filling.
Chocolate Pie Filling:
In a saucepan, add the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and shaved chocolate.
On medium heat, gradually stir milk into the saucepan and continue stirring 15-20 minutes until the chocolate is melted and the mixture thickens and begins to bubble.
Once bubbling, set a timer for 1 minute and stir as the chocolate mixture simmers.
Remove the saucepan from the heat.
Crack 3 eggs and separate the yolks from the whites into separate bowls (set the whites aside to use with the meringue topping).
Temper the egg yolks by slowly spooning 4-5 Tbsp of the heated, thickened chocolate mixture in with the yolks, stirring constantly so as not to cook the eggs.
Once the yolks are tempered stir the egg yolk/chocolate mixture back into the saucepan with the heated filling.
Return the saucepan to the stove and bring the filling back to a simmer, and cook for 1 final minute, stirring all the while.
Remove saucepan from the stove and stir in vanilla and almond extract.
Now pour the chocolate filling into the pre-baked pie shell and set pie aside to cool.
Meringue Topping:
In a small saucepan add 1 Tbsp of cornstarch, 2 Tbsp sugar, and ½ cup water.
Mix the three ingredients well and heat over medium heat, stirring until the mixture thickens and clears slightly from milky to opaque.
Set sauce pan aside in a pan of water to cool.
In a mixing bowl add the egg whites and cream of tartar.
Beat 20-30 seconds until frothy.
Add 2 Tbsp of sugar into the frothy mix and then beat for another 10 seconds.
Add 2 more Tbsp of sugar and continue beating the mixture until it thickens and peaks begin to form.
Now add the cooled, opaque mix of sugar and cornstarch into the meringue and continue to beat.
Beat until nice, stiff peaks form.
Take a spatula and spread the meringue evenly over the cooled chocolate pie filling. Cover the filling completely, overlapping slightly onto the edges of the pie crust.
Lightly chop the top of the meringue to form peaks on top of the pie.
Slide the pie into an oven preheated to 400 degrees F and bake meringue for 10-12 minutes, or until the top of the top of the meringue shows a nice color.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow to cool completely before slicing. This will take several hours!
When cooled, store pie in the refrigerator beneath a pie dome, do not wrap meringue in plastic wrap or foil.
