Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

Enjoy this pie on a special occasion but remember to keep tabs on portions.

Special Extra

Garnish each slice with a NILLA Wafer just before serving.

How to Make Chocolate Curls

Warm BAKER'S Chocolate slightly by heating it, unwrapped, in the microwave for a few seconds until you can just smudge the chocolate with your thumb. Hold the chocolate steadily between thumb and fingers of one hand and draw a peeler slowly over flat bottom of chocolate. Allow a thin layer of chocolate to curl as it is peeled off the bottom. This will make long, delicate curls. Make short curls using the same technique on the narrow sides of the square. To arrange curls on a dessert, use a toothpick to lift them into place.

I made this is dessert with Christmas dinner. Everybody loved it. My brother told me he wants this for his birthdays from here on out! Was a little nervous because it called for so much cool whip. Didn't think it would all fit in the 9 inch pie plate. But everything fit and everybody loved it.

This was super easy and super good! I used a pre made graham cracker pie crust and did not cover with the extra cool whip, peanuts or chocolate shavings--just something quick and easy for my husband and I to enjoy, and we did!
