Zubereitung von Chocolate Cashew Pie
- Prepare a 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade).
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup light corn syrup, ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup (1 stick) softened margarine, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 large eggs.
- Beat with a wire whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Set aside 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips.
- Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup cashew halves.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and spread evenly.
- Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 45-55 minutes, or until the pie is deeply golden brown and the filling is set.
- After 15-20 minutes of baking, loosely cover the edges of the crust with aluminum foil strips to prevent over-browning.
- Let the pie cool completely at room temperature for 2 hours.
- While the pie cools, line a baking sheet with wax paper.
- In a small saucepan, melt the reserved 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips over low heat.
- Dip each whole cashew into the melted chocolate.
- Place the chocolate-covered cashews on the prepared baking sheet.
- Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
- Garnish the cooled pie with whipped cream and the chocolate-dipped cashews.
- Store in the refrigerator. To enhance the whipped cream, fold in 1-2 tablespoons of sweetened cocoa mix, some grated citrus zest, spices like cinnamon, or a splash of your favorite liqueur.
