Introduction
French silk pie sounds elegant, but is very simple to prepare. It will usually satisfy even the most acute chocoholic's need for chocolate. French silk pie consists of a dense chocolate cream filling, usually served in a pastry pie crust and topped with sweetened whipped cream. The filling is similar to that used for chocolate cream pie, but whereas chocolate cream pie is based on a cooked custard, French Silk pie does not have a cooked filling. The traditional French Silk pie recipe uses eggs, but this version is made with pasteurized egg substitute, to avoid the dangers involved with consuming uncooked eggs. -

Step 3: French Silk Pie Variations
- Add 2 teaspoons instant coffee powder to the melted chocolate for a mocha silk pie.
