(DO NOT USE THE MICROWAVE FUDGE MIX FOR THIS BY MISTAKE!! THE PIE MIX HAS A RED LABEL)
From your kit you will require: A bag of chocolate fudge pie mix, a round cardboard tray and a round paper liner.
In addition you will require: 170g salted or unsalted butter, 3 eggs (any size), mixing bowl and a fork or hand whisk.
1. Pre-heat oven to 170 degrees C.
2. Place round paper liner inside round cardboard pie case.
3. THE CARDBOARD CASE CAN BE RE-USED.
4. Warm butter in microwave or over low heat until butter is melted.
5. Add contents of fudge pie mix bag and stir in gently.
6. Heat in microwave on high or gently over a low heat for 45 seconds and stir in any unmixed powder.
7. Beat 3 eggs until well mixed.
8. Slowly add eggs to the mix and fold until they are blended in
9. Pour mix into paper liner.
10. Cook for approximately 50 minutes in the middle of the oven. Ovens do vary and we recommend that you reduce cooking time by between five and ten minutes for a fan assisted oven. If the top of the pie is burning, lightly cover it with foil.
11. To test if the pie is ready, insert a skewer or a fork into the middle of the pie. If it comes out clean, your pie is ready. The pie will rise during cooking and fall whilst cooling.
12. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Place in refrigerator and remove when ready to serve. Can be served hot or cold.
The Pie is not a cake and it is meant to be quite crisp on the outside and soft and “squidgey” on the inside. In some ovens you may find that you need to cook for 10 minutes longer just cover the top with some foil to avoid burning it.
