How to Make Brandy Alexander Pie
- Sprinkle 1 envelope (1 tablespoon) of unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small saucepan. Let stand for 1 minute to bloom.
- Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, or until the gelatin is completely dissolved, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whip 2 cups heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the cooled gelatin mixture to the whipped cream along with 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup brandy, and 1/4 cup crème de cacao. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought).
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the pie is completely set.
- Garnish with extra whipped cream and shaved or grated chocolate before serving.
