Chocolate…fluffy…creaminess…dessert…folded in whipped topping. What’s not to love about that? The first time I had this pie, I was astonished that it was homemade! It was not from Baker’s Square – although it is very similar to their French Silk pie -and it might be even better.
The truth about it is that this pie is quite simple: it is made with only six ingredients. Yes!
I used a frozen pie crust – but if you feel overly ambitious – try our homemade pie crust. This chocolate dessert is absolutely decadent and delicious, and the perfect cure for a chocolate craving. 🙂
