Ingredients
Pastry Crust:
- 1 all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup solid shortening (recommended: Crisco)
- 1/4 cup cold water
- Pinch salt
Chocolate Filling:
- 1 1/2 sticks of butter
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 5 egg yolks
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint flavoring
- 3 squares baking chocolate, melted and cooled
- 5 stiffly beaten egg whites
Cream cheese filling:
- 1/3 cup sifted powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy whipped cream
Raspberry Filling: (you can substitute 1 cup of seedless raspberry jam):
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup frozen raspberries
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
Directions
Crust:
Cut shortening into salt and flour until mixture is pea-sized pieces. Add cold water slowly until mixture forms a ball. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
Roll out on a floured board. Put in pie pan. Prick crust on bottom of pan with a fork. Bake for 8 to10 minutes until light brown. Cool.
Chocolate Filling:
In the bowl of a mixer, combine the butter and powdered sugar and beat together until fluffy. Add the egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add the peppermint and melted chocolate and mix until combined.
Beat the egg whites in a separate mixer until they hold stiff peaks. Gently fold the whites into the butter mixture.
Cream Cheese Filling:
Mix together powdered sugar, vanilla and cream cheese. Fold in whipped cream until smooth.
Raspberry Filling
Cook until raspberries are partially cooked and run through a cheesecloth or sieve to get the seeds out. Return to heat and add sugar and cornstarch. Boil over medium heat. Spread 1/2 of the raspberry filling into baked pie shell gently. Spread 1/2 of the chocolate filling over that and chill. Spread 1/2 the cream cheese filling over the chocolate filling. Repeat the layers.

I had high hopes for this pie, the flavor combinations and the fact that it was an award winner led me to believe it was going to be great. However it took way to long to make and never set up firmly even making it the day before. I should have served it in a bowl with spoons and labeled it "melting puddle fluff".

I couldn?t resist making this award winning pie for dessert at last year?s Christmas dinner. A raspberry chocolate mint ribbon pie?what could be more appropriate, right? Everything went smoothly during the preparation and the pie looked very festive when I put it in the refrigerator to set up but hours later, when I took it out to serve, it oozed everywhere, something I did not expect. I was hoping there might have been a mistake in the ingredients?something left out that would explain why the pie didn?t firm up but the recipe is the same now as a year before. I have served the pie since?frozen and it really is delicious.
