Ingredients

Crust

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

3 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter, melted

2 teaspoons sugar

Filling

3/4 cup sugar

2 large Land O Lakes® Eggs

1/2 cup Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

How to make

  1. STEP 1

    Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cups into 24 mini muffin pan cups; set aside.

  2. STEP 2

    Combine all crust ingredients in bowl; mix well. Press heaping teaspoon of crumbs into bottom of each prepared muffin cup. Bake 4-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool.

  3. STEP 3

    Place sugar and eggs into 1-quart sauce pan; whisk constantly over medium heat until mixture reaches 165°F. Remove from heat; cool slightly.

  4. STEP 4

    Combine butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla and salt in bowl; beat at medium speed until creamy. Add chocolate; continue beating until smooth. Add cooled egg mixture; beat at least 7 minutes until mixture thickens and lightens in color.

  5. STEP 5

    Spoon filling evenly into cooled crusts; refrigerate 1 hour or until set.

  6. STEP 6

    Beat chilled whipping cream and powdered sugar in chilled bowl at high speed, scraping bowl often, until stiff peaks form. Gently stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.

  7. STEP 7

    Remove pie bites from pan; top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.

Tip #1

It’s important to beat chocolate filling at least 7 minutes for a fluffier texture. Stopping too soon will result in a thick, ganache-like consistency.
