Ingredients
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup low fat milk
- 2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons chocolate flavored liqueur
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons meringue powder
- 6 tablespoons water
- 1 1/2 cups thawed fat-free frozen whipped topping
- 1 (9 inch) pre-baked pie crust
- 1/2 (1 oz) square grated semisweet chocolate
Directions
Microwave both chocolates and the milk in a microwavable container on High, stirring halfway through cooking time, until melted and smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in the corn syrup, liqueur and vanilla. Let cool completely.
With an electric mixer on high speed, beat the meringue powder and water in a medium bowl until glossy peaks form, 2- 3 minutes. With a rubber spatula, gently fold the beaten meringue and whipped topping into the cooled chocolate mixture until no streaks of white remain. Spoon into the prepared crust; spread evenly. Sprinkle with the grated chocolate. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until frozen, at least 3 hours.
