Delicious mississippi mud pie recipe recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Chocolate wafer cookies: 2 cups, crushed
  • Unsalted butter: 6 tablespoons, melted
  • Granulated sugar: 1/4 cup
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder: 1/2 cup
  • Heavy cream: 1 1/2 cups
  • Semisweet chocolate chips: 1 1/2 cups
  • Marshmallows: 2 cups, mini
  • Hot fudge sauce: For serving

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine crushed chocolate wafers and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. Step 2: Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes. Let cool completely.
  3. Step 3: In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips until melted. Pour into cooled crust.
  4. Step 4: In a separate saucepan, heat the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream until simmering. Pour over the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Stir until melted and smooth. Let cool slightly.
  5. Step 5: Spread marshmallows evenly over the chocolate filling. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until marshmallows are lightly browned. Let cool completely.
  6. Step 6: Spread the cooled chocolate ganache over the toasted marshmallows. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with hot fudge sauce.

Notes

  • Store leftover pie tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain its texture.
  • For a warm, gooey treat, gently heat individual slices in the microwave for 10-15 seconds, being careful not to melt the marshmallows completely.
  • Serve chilled with a generous drizzle of hot fudge and a dollop of whipped cream for an extra decadent experience.
  • To prevent a soggy crust, ensure the baked cookie crust is completely cooled before adding the chocolate filling.
