Directions

Cook's Note: Meringue powder can be found now at most higher-end grocery stores or at craft stores in the cake decorating supplies section.

Melt both chocolates and the milk in a double boiler over low heat. Remove from the heat and add in the corn syrup, chocolate-flavored liqueur and vanilla extract. Mix together and allow to cool completely.

With an electric mixer on high speed, beat the meringue powder with 6 tablespoons water in a medium bowl until glossy peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. With a rubber spatula, gently fold the beaten meringue and the whipped topping into the cooled chocolate mixture until no streaks of white remain. Spoon into the prepared crust and spread evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until frozen, for a couple of hours. Garnish with grated chocolate and serve.

    I was looking for a lightened up chocolate pie and was excited to try this one after I saw it on his show. I honestly thought it'd be ok. I was pleasantly surprised when I took my first bite of this how amazing it was! It tastes rich, smooth and creamy. Your friends will never know just how lightened up it really is! This is now a favorite at my house. I will be making this for Thanksgiving this year.

    I made this without the chocolate-flavored liqueur, and with 8 oz of cool whip and a homemade chocolate cookie pie crust.

    Outstanding recipe! I used a homemade chocolate graham cracker crust and all dark chocolate chips (no semisweet in my pantry. I also used Kahlua since I had no chocolate liqueur. Glad I checked the Cook's note, or I'd have had NO idea where to find meringue powder. The pie was easy to make and beyond delicious. Can't believe this pie has only 220 calories a slice!
