Triple Chocolate Dream Pie
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. + chilling
YIELD: 8 servings.
Creamy chocolate pie makes for an indulgent dessert. My light version let's you have this treat without any guilt. Sometimes I add a teaspoon of instant coffee granules to the sugar-cocoa mixture for a mocha pie.— Mary Ann Ring, Bluffton, Ohio
