Fireman Dan’s Chocolate Cream Pie

Share This Recipe

I can’t think of a better comfort food than chocolate, can you? Wouldn’t it be great to know that you have a stack of chocolate pies in the freezer that you can pull out on a moment’s notice to offer company, take to a sick friend, or share
with your local firemen or police force. This pie has a chocolate crumb crust and 4 Hershey bars in it. What could be better? Thanks to my friend, Dan Smith, who shared this recipe many years ago when he was featured in our local newspaper (our Cheeseburger Quiche recipe is his, too).

Too bad, huh?)

Nanci’s Comments:
Dan was featured as a Cook of the Month in our local newspaper several years ago because of the great cooking he did for his fellow firefighters. I’ve been making this pie ever since and it’s always wonderful!
Jenna and I recently took two pies to Dan’s station and said “thanks” to some of Indiana’s finest.
