🥘Ingredients

For the Crust

1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

For the Filling

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

👨‍🍳Directions

1Make the crust. In a medium bowl, combine chocolate wafer crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined and the crumbs are moistened.
2Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Place in the refrigerator to set while you make the filling.
3Make the filling. In a small saucepan over low heat, or in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, melt the chocolate chips with the heavy cream. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
4Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt. Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
5Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
6Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm. Slice and serve cold.
