Made this tonight, it's in the fridge to set overnight - will let you know how it turns out.

Next time I would probably use plain cream rather than sour cream as the chocolate mixture had more of a tang than I would like.

snappy, I am wanting to make this so watching this thread. Do you mean it had a sour cream taste?

Greyhoundmum it had a slight tang, characteristic of sour cream.  I thought the chocolate might take it away but it didn't - it's not bad, I just prefer plain cream.

Of course I was tasting it warm straight from the bowl so I could change my mind tomorrow after it has had time to cool and set

Seeing as there are no photos of this pie yet, I thought I had better upload one.

As you can see I used a biscuit base instead of pastry to make it super quick and easy. Truly, you can make this dessert in less than 10 mins and then into the refrigerator for a couple of hours.  It looks pretty impressive considering how easy it is.

I haven't had a taste yet uni ;)  I will report back tonight on whether I will try with plain cream next time.

I just used Cadbury Old Gold - it was on sale at the supermarket!  I am sure Paul's suggestion of Valrohna would be much better!

Ok, I was wrong.  Ths pie was DELICIOUS!  It got so many compliments that nobody even noticed the cookies and cream fudge - how is that possible???

Make it exactly as specified and you will be invited everywhere!  I would say it serves about 8 slices
