Pseudo-French Silk Pie
YIELD: 8-12 servings of 8-9 inch pie
POINTS/Serv: 9-5
*You can use a blender, but it's harder to get the mixture thoroughly incorporated.
**Start off with small amounts of chocolate if you don't want an ultra-rich pie. I used 12 oz and ended up cutting the entire thing into 12 slices because it was so rich. Also, I used all bitter-sweet chocolate, but think a combo of semi- and bitter- would make an excellent dessert. Something else I may try is a white chocolate pie. Then there's marbled pie...oh the potential this recipes has!!
