Frozen Chocolate Pie Recipe
This is a sponsored post, I am a Sears Blogger Squad blogger, though all opinions are my own.
Father’s Day is just 10 days away, how will you be spoiling your dad, brother, uncle, husband, grandparents or other men in your life this year? This year, find something to make your dad feel special and important. Whether he loves to grill, spends his days in the workshop, or is a wizard in the kitchen you can find the perfect gift for dad this year at Sears to give him a makeover he deserves that fits his personality.
My dad is the most generous, giving person I know. One of the way he openly gives and shows his big heart is feeding people. Food is the key to the heart, after all. Whenever he has someone over visit his home, he jumps up and tries to find something he can feed them. He eagerly reaches into the fridge and will offer and share anything he can find from drinks, snacks, a full meal and of course treats!
I wanted to treat him with a brand new fridge this Father’s Day! My parents fridge was overheating and their ice maker had been broken repeatedly for years, it was clearly hanging on the edge at the end of it’s life. When I surprised my dad with the news of what I was planning, he was totally shocked, and so incredibly excited!
After spoiling my dad to a new fridge, he turned it around on me and made his absolutely favorite pie to share! This pie has become a family tradition, and a recipe we hold dear. Every Christmas, my parents will whip up a dozen or so of this amazing frozen chocolate pie recipe and give out a pie to their friends as a gift. Everyone loves this creamy, decadent, chocolate mousse like pie!
Frozen Chocolate Pie
Ingredients:
- 6 oz (1 cup) Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup Butter, softened
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- 4 eggs
- 9-inch graham cracker pie shell
Directions:
Melt chocolate chips by microwaving the chips in a microwave safe dish at 50% heat. Start with 45 seconds, and then stir and continue heating in 15 second intervals until the chocolate is smooth and melted. Do not over cook.
In a separate bowl, blend together powdered sugar and soft butter until creamy and smooth. Add vanilla and chocolate and combine again.
Crack one egg into the pie mixture at a time blending until smooth.
Pour the mixture into a 9-inch graham cracker pie shell. Freeze overnight, setting the pie on a level surface in your freezer.
Slice and serve the frozen chocolate pie as is or top with whipped topping!
Or, if you are brave, try it my dad’s style — completely covered in whipped topping so that you can’t even see your pie! If you ever stop by to visit my dad, he’ll be handing you a plate and sharing even his favorite pie without reservation.

The biggest problem with cream pies is that they fall apart when you are serving them. Eating it frozen eliminates that.
This looks like my kind of dessert! Thanks for linking up with What’s Cookin’ Wednesday!
I’m so jealous of your new refrigerator! And that frozen chocolate pie looks heavenly! Thanks for sharing at the #HomeMattersParty – we love partying with you! Hope to see you next Friday. 🙂
