I'm drooling right now just looking back over these pictures. I made my daddy a chocolate cream pie for Father's Day, and it was declared by him "the best pie he's ever had." I couldn't believe how perfect it turned out. It was so, so, so easy to make - yet tasted sinfully rich. The crust is just a basic, flaky pie crust; I wouldn't use any other crust on this if you mainly want to taste the chocolate layer. This layer is rich, fudgey, silky, and oh-so chocolatey. It's also kind of thin, but you definitely won't mind because it's so rich anyways. And even though it is very rich, it doesn't fill you up like a cheesecake would (since it's a thin layer) - so you will definitely want to go back for seconds(: This pie was over half way eaten the first night I made it! And that's just between my mom, dad and I, and it was right after we'd gone out for Father's Day dinner. This is definitely the only chocolate cream pie I will ever use from now on!
