Lockdown Pie

  • April 18, 2021

Another lockdown…how are you planning to spend this one? At least the warm weather has arrived, sort of, so getting out is a lot more pleasant than during the winter. But today I just wanted comfort food…I didn’t want homemade bread or healthy homemade soup or a take out from a restaurant, I didn’t really know what I wanted. And then it hit me – who is the undisputed Queen of Comfort Food?  It didn’t take long after leafing through Grace’s cookbook for me to settle on her amazing Chocolate Cream Pie, what could possibly more comforting? Okay, maybe the Mac and Cheese, maybe the Dutch Apple Pie, maybe the hearty chili…lots to choose from. 

But today it’s Chocolate Cream Pie, so light and chocolatey with Grace’s perfect pastry cradling that wonderful rich chocolate custard smothered in whipped cream…think I need another piece!

Stay tuned, I plan to comfort-eat my way through this lockdown!
