How to Make Orange Chocolate Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs and 4 tablespoons melted butter. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Make the filling: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup milk. Microwave on high for 1-minute intervals, stirring until smooth and melted.
- Beat in 8 ounces cream cheese (softened) and 2 tablespoons orange zest until completely smooth and creamy.
- Let the chocolate mixture cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream (or 8 ounces Cool Whip) until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
