Dark Chocolate Espresso Cream Pie with Amaretto Cherries

Since World Food Championships 2020 in Dallas had to be cancelled due to Covid-19, this year’s WFC is completely virtual.  Instead of the usual categories in which we compete, this year’s format allows us to compete in multiple categories and enter multiple recipes (and pictures).

For this year’s Holiday Sweets with Hershey’s and Pyure Organics, my first entry is a Dark Chocolate Espresso Cream Pie with Amaretto Cherries, and although it’s decadent and over-the-top with dark chocolate, it’s incredibly easy to make.

  1. I don’t like a lot of sweets, but this looks divine and I do have a soft spot for both chocolate cream pie and cheesecake!
