    Hershey’s Hotel Chocolate Cream Pie, The classic chocolate cream pie, served at the Hershey Hotel And now a little history: While the nation was suffering through the Great Depression, the Chocolate King, Milton S Hershey, had a vision Though close friends and associates called him crazy and urged him not to do it, he was determined to build a grand hotel high atop Pat’s Hill in the town he built on chocolate Nearly three decades earlier, Hershey had perfected his formula for milk chocolate and began his planned community of Hershey, Pennsylvania He had already constructed the chocolate factory, homes for his employees and a school for orphaned boys Now it was time to realize his dream Before his wife, Catherine, passed away in 1915, she and Milton had planned to build a luxury hotel in the style of those they loved during their travels abroad They dreamed of re-creating the Heliopolis Hotel, a famous resort in Cairo, Egypt Hershey went so far as to purchase the architectural plans, but when the estimated cost to duplicate the structure was $5 million, he abandoned the idea In 1930, Hershey announced that he intended to build his hotel after all He gave his architect, D Paul Witmer, a postcard of a smaller hotel he and Catherine had enjoyed on the Mediterranean His involvement didn’t stop there Based on travel notes he and his wife had kept, Hershey instructed Witmer to outfit the new hotel with a Spanish patio, tiled floors, a fountain, and a dining room with a good view from every table During construction, as many a 800 steelworkers, masons, carpenters, and other craftsmen and laborers were employed on the Hershey payroll We have about 600 construction workers in this town, Hershey said If I don’t provide work for them, I’ll have to feed them And since building materials are now at their lowest cost levels, I’m going to build and give them jobs Work began in 1932, continued through a very mild winter and was completed in 1933 A formal opening celebration was held on May 26, 1933 with a dinner and dance for 400 invited guests The $2 million Hotel Hershey opened for business the next day It was an elegant jewel nestled in the rolling hills of Hershey’s birthplace A local newspaper observed, Somewhat belying the simplicity of taste for which the Chocolate King is noted, the hotel is characterized by great luxury of detail and elegance of appointment Tinted walls, palms and fountains, carved woodwork, and brilliant hangings and rugs Indeed, a Mediterranean-style hotel in central Pennsylvania was unarguably distinctive Among its unique features, the Circular Dining Room promised what Hershey wanted – a view from every table Built in a semicircle, without pillars or corners, it allows each guest to view the breathtaking formal gardens on the far side of the windows Thirteen stained glass windows frame the outside perimeter, with each pane depicting birds and blooms native to Hershey’s beloved state The Hotel Hershey celebrates over 70 years of tradition and elegance , I can’t print the recipe !!!! but looks wonderful, I followed the recipe to a T and it set up perfectly used Chef shapeweaver’s Peanut Butter Cookie Crumbs Pie Crust (Recipe #320839) It was a very rich combination and whipped cream on top is a must!
