Scottish Recipes- Chocolate Velvet Cream Pie
Scottish Recipe Ingredients for the base:
  • 250g (9 oz) packet dark chocolate digestive biscuits (Graham crackers in North America).
  • 75g (3 oz) butter, melted and cooled

Scottish Recipe Ingredients for the filling:
  • 225g (8 oz or 2 US sticks) cream cheese
  • 175g (6 oz or one cup scant) caster (fine granulated) sugar
  • 5 ml (1 tsp.) vanilla essence
  • 175g (6 oz) dark chocolate, melted
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 300 ml (8 fluid ounces or one US cup) double cream
  • 1 large egg white

Scottish recipe Instructions:
To make the base, crush the biscuit to crumbs in a blender or food processor, or in a polythene bag with a rolling pin. Mix together the biscuit crumbs and the cooled melted butter, and press round the base and sides of a 20-22.5cm (8-9inch) flan dish. Bake in the oven pre-heated to 180'c (350'f/gas mark 4) for 15 minutes. Remove and leave to cool.

To make the filling, beat together the cream cheese and 100g (4 oz) of the caster sugar. Beat in the vanilla essence and the melted chocolate, and the egg yolk, one by one. Fold in the cream, whipped until it just holds its shape. Whisk the egg whites until they are stiff, then, still whisking, add the remaining caster sugar a spoonful at a time. Fold into the chocolate mixture. Pour the mixture in to the cooled baked pie crust. Chill in the fridge for several hours until set...enjoy it !
