How to Make Extreme Chocolate Mud Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9-inch pie plate.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Add 1 box (15.25 oz) brownie mix, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour. Stir until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pie plate.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely (30-60 minutes).
- Gently press the cooled crust down with the back of a spoon, creating a well for the filling.
- While the crust cools, prepare the filling.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar on medium speed for 4 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 8 oz cream cheese until smooth.
- Melt 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- Pour the cooled melted chocolate into the butter mixture and beat until combined. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Spread the chocolate filling evenly over the cooled crust.
- If desired, sprinkle with 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1/4 cup chopped nuts, pressing gently into the filling.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
- For the topping: In a clean mixing bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder until soft peaks form.
- Whip for an additional 30 seconds until stiff peaks form.
- Spoon the whipped cream over the filling, creating swirls.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Just before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings or other desired decorations.
