    While trying to find a French Silk Pie Recipe for my boyfriend for Thanksgiving, I had about 10 tabs open with every recipe that looked good. Your tab was the second one that I opened and played. Needless to say, I just deleted all of the others because I have found THE ONE! Thank you for your wonderful instructions and especially your fun personality 🥰

    I had never heard of French silk pie until I went to Chicago to visit some cousins when I was in middle school. We went to the Pie House and my cousin told me to order it. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I had never had anything so delicious before. It is the best pie that has ever been invented.

      French silk- is a thicker, buttery rich ,creamier, luxurious texture that sort of chalks off when you put your fork in, it’s impressive in every way. Chocolate pie is easier to make with less steps. Both are chocolate and tasty but this French silk is like eating dessert at a fine restaurant.
      I’ve made this pie. I added some finely chopped chocolate pieces into the finished silk mixture of egg, chocolate, butter, vanilla and whip cream before pouring into the crust- which,
      I used crushed thin Oreo cookies and melted butter instead of a butter pie crust be used here, once the crushed Oreos are well mixed into the melted butter it is equally spread and pressed into the pie pan and baked for about 10 min at 400 degrees. Cool it, fill it with the silk mixture and the chopped chocolate folded gently in, then top with the final whip cream and shaved chocolate.
      You won’t be sorry.

      With chopped chocolate
      Topped with whip cream and shavings.

      Also, with this recipe I doubled the unsweetened chocolate that is melted and then mixed into the egg and sugar, because I prefer a thicker filling. So, instead of 4 oz I used 8 oz to melt. When I used his recipe I was trying to re-create a French silk I’ve had, and it had a density to it that we really like, which is why I doubled the chocolate to 8 oz.

    Thank you for this recipe. I made a pie this weekend and it was very good but the flavor is off from the French silk pies I fell in love with as a kid. I believe that tempering the eggs changes the flavor and that Ghirardelli chocolate tastes much more traditional than what what I was able to get this weekend, Guitard. I also prefer using egg whites to lighten the filling instead of cream. Finally, I think the cream and additional sugar made the filling to sweet. All said, though, it was a great pie. Thanks again. On to the lemon bars. 😅
