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

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 large egg white
  • FILLING:
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup baking cocoa
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fat-free milk
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • TOPPING:
  • 1-1/2 cups reduced-fat whipped topping
  • 1 teaspoon grated chocolate

Directions

  1. Combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter and egg white; press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 375° for 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
  2. For filling, in a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
  3. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in chocolate chips and vanilla.
  4. Pour into crust. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm. Spread whipped topping over filling; sprinkle with grated chocolate.
