Alton BrownS Dairy Free Chocolate Pie

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Wonderful for those who can't have milk, and those who can. Much like a chocolate decadence only with a crust. I made this so my kids and I, who are milk sensitive, could have a creamy dessert like everyone else. I did change the recipe to have coffee liqueur, and used honey, as I don't like agave. Looking at another recipe for this, I see that I just made it like AB made it originally by doing that. Had to microwave the chocolate for a bit to soften it up more, as mine tried to seize up in the double boiler. Poured into a graham crust. I am going to make this again with different liqueurs, such as the raspberry suggested here, or even orange or coconut. Thanks for sharing! I also think this is way more than 8 servings, as a little goes a long way. It's extremely rich. Update: Made this low carb with almond crust and sugar free chocolate chips. Excellent!
