Oh yes, this pie is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!! Seriously, loaded with a rich, chocolate flavor and incredibly simple to whip up! Your guests will think you spent tons of effort in the kitchen making this, but we’ll just keep that our little secret, hehe!
I made this a few weeks back for my family to enjoy over the weekend and it was a big hit! The slight hint of coffee was one of my favorite parts of this because let’s be real, I am a coffee kinda gal! If I can put coffee and dessert together, I am good to go!!
Next time you want a sweet treat, I highly recommend trying this!!
Enjoy!
