    Fantastic! Very easy to make as long as you watch the cream as it heats and keep whisking. I couldn't find my scale so I had to guess on the 4oz of chocolate which made it a bit rich. It was good, but had to eat smaller portions, which I guess is a good thing. To say the least, that was user error, and next time I will be sure to find my scale before I start! Great recipe!

    I really love this recipe. I add just a tad more chocolate than it calls for, and more whipped cream folded in. Sometimes, I make it with peanut butter, too. Every time I make it, every one loves it.

    This pie was a HUGE hit with my family. I spent way to much money buying pies at the local pie shop, and all my family wanted was this. This was gone in minutes and everyone begged me to make it again. My kids all want it at their birthdays instead of cake! It takes time... but it's not hard to make at all.

    I made this for our Thanksgiving dinner, my son requested a chocolate cream pie and this is what I found. And what a find it is! I did have to up the amount of butter for the crust to hold it together better, and I did up the chocolate a bit to get a bit richer flavor. Definitely go for the better quality chocolate, it does make all the difference. I am now told that I will be expected to make this again and again for years to come. Also, chop the chocolate before, have the egg yolks ready, measure everything out and read the directions over a few times to get the hang of it. Do that, be organized and you should have absolutely no trouble at all. Thanks!

    I just finished making this chocolate cream pie for the first time and it turned out perfect. The filling is so creamy and tasted devine. I can see how the recipe might get confussing but as another reveiwer mentioned, lay out everything you need, premeasure and read the recipe several times.

    This is so delicious and so easy to make! I did use a pre-made oreo cookie crust ( same thing due to time contraints and it was so so yummy! The best filling and whipped cream, this was a hit and will be served time and time again! Thanks Emeril!!

    This recipe was incredibly difficult to make. I bake quite a bit, but found this way too tedious. I would agree with previous reviews that there was way too much crust, even after I followed the recommendations of cutting down the graham crackers and upping the butter. The outer edges burned in the oven. As far as the filling goes, stir it CONSTANTLY and put it on low-medium instead of medium to high heat or you will end up with a burnt mixture. The final produce was okay, but not worth the trouble, even with the modifications. I definitely won't make it again.

    Even better warmed up and served with ice cream!!!! I used 5 oz semi sweet and 1 oz milk chocolate-was great...I didn't have buttermilk - so I made my own by combining milk & vinegar-also turned out well taste wise, but took a little longer to set up all the way. Not a chocolate lover, but I would make again for anyone that is!
