How to Make Chocolate Raspberry Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a 9-inch unbaked pie crust with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides completely.
  2. Bake for 8 minutes.
  3. Carefully remove the foil.
  4. Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden.
  5. Let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
  7. Gently stir in 3 cups fresh raspberries. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  8. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened.
  9. Remove from heat and let cool completely for 15 minutes.
  10. Pour the cooled raspberry filling into the prepared pie crust and spread evenly.
  11. Refrigerate the pie for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to set slightly.
  12. In a large mixing bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  13. Gently fold in 1 cup whipped cream.
  14. Carefully spread the cream cheese mixture over the raspberry layer.
  15. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the cream cheese layer to set.
  16. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
  17. Let the chocolate ganache cool for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  18. Pour the chocolate ganache over the cream cheese layer and spread evenly.
  19. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
  20. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator.
