Cuisine: American
Serves: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch pie pan by greasing it lightly with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions. This usually involves combining the brownie mix with water, oil, and eggs. Stir until just combined, ensuring not to overmix.
- Fold in the 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips, and 1/2 cup of milk chocolate chips into the brownie batter. This will create a rich, chocolatey texture throughout the brownies.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
- Once baked, remove the brownie pie from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the brownie is cooling, prepare the whipped cream. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Using an electric mixer, whip the cream mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as you want the cream to be fluffy and smooth.
- Once the brownie pie is completely cooled, spread the whipped cream evenly over the top of the brownie layer. You can use a spatula or the back of a spoon to create swirls for a decorative touch.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle additional chocolate chips or shavings of chocolate on top of the whipped cream layer.
- Refrigerate the Triple Chocolate Brownie Cream Pie for at least 30 minutes to allow the whipped cream to set and the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, slice the pie into 10 equal portions. Serve chilled and enjoy the rich, decadent flavors of this delicious dessert!
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the most consistent brownie mix and whipped cream.
- Don't Overmix: When preparing the brownie batter, mix just until ingredients are combined to keep the texture light and fudgy.
- Chocolate Chip Pro Tip: Toss the chocolate chips in a little flour before adding to the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
- Whipped Cream Wisdom: Chill your mixing bowl and whisk/beaters before whipping cream for maximum volume and stability.
- Cooling is Crucial: Allow the brownie base to cool completely before adding the whipped cream to prevent melting.
- Make Ahead Magic: This pie actually tastes even better when chilled overnight, allowing flavors to meld perfectly.
- Decorative Touch: For a professional look, use a piping bag to create beautiful whipped cream swirls on top.
- Storage Secret: Keep refrigerated and consume within 2-3 days for the best taste and texture.
