Bailey's Chocolate Mousse Pie

[MagiePerdu]

Quick, easy, satisfying and, if you eat enough of it, you won't mind that you're not in Erin.

INGREDIENTS:

1 Chocolate (graham/choc)
1 package unflavored gelatin (env)
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup Bailey's Irish Cream
6 oz semisweet choc chips
2 cups frozen whipped topping

Choc-dipped strawberries as a garnish, if desired.

In saucepan, sprinkle unflavored gelatine over milk. Let stand about 1 minute. Stir over low heat until gelatine is dissolved, about 5 minutes.

Add chocolate and continue cooking, stirring constantly until chocolate is melted, then stir in the vanilla.

Remove from heat and stir occasionally, adding Bailey's about five minutes after removal from heat. When mixture forms mounds when dropped from spoon, fold in whipped topping.

Turn into crust. Garnish with more whipped topping (or real whipped cream, if you prefer) and strawberries (if desired).

Chill at least 4 hours before serving.

This is an easy to make pie!

Ingredients:

1-1/2 cups cold milk
1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
2-3/4 cups whipped topping, divided
1/2 package Andes baking chips or 1 pkg. (4.67 ounces) mint Andes candies, chopped, divided
1 chocolate crumb crust (9 inches)
1/4 teaspoon mint extract
2 drops green food coloring, optional

Directions:

In a small bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in 3/4 cup whipped topping. Fold in 3/4 cup candies. Spoon into crust.

In another bowl, combine extract and remaining whipped topping; add food coloring if you like (if you're making this for St. Paddy' day, of COURSE you want the food coloring!). Spread over pudding layer; sprinkle with remaining candies.

Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or until set. Yield: 8 servings.

This isn't a true irish dessert, but if you use the food coloring, it's GREEN!

INGREDIENTS:

Single Refrigerated Pie Crust

FILLING

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup water
4 large egg yolks, slightly beaten
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
2 teaspoons grated lime peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 or 3 drops green food coloring
4 cups whipped topping
Lime peel twists (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

PREPARE and bake single pie crust according to recipe directions, using a 9-inch pie plate; cool.

FILLING

SPRINKLE gelatin over the water in a glass measuring cup.

WHISK together egg yolks, sugar, lime juice, lime peel and salt in small saucepan over medium heat until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.

STIR reserved gelatin and add it to the filling mixture, whisking until smooth. Whisk in food coloring, one drop at a time, until desired color is achieved. Cover saucepan with plastic wrap and refrigerate filling until partially set.

Can't imagine eating anything lime-y on St. Paddy's Day-- but that Bailey's Pie (with real whipped cream, o' course) is seriously calling my name-- and Jewel (Albertson's) has Bailey's on sale for $12 this week (with a rebate)... I might just have to go for it.

Oh Magie Dear, the pies, the pies are calling....
