Hi there,
I was wondering if one can replace the pecan nuts with almonds, walnuts or hazelnuts?
Thx for your help :)

The link for pie crust is not for a chocolate pie crust. The picture clearly shows a chocolate crust.What?????The last recipe I used from this site had missing ingredients and was later amended. Too late for me.

I've always known Mississippi mud pie to be made with coffee ice cream as the filling...

Search this site for the "Chocolate-Peanut Butter Pie" recipe (which is also good) and you will find a recipe for the chocolate cookie-crumb crust.

The photo appears to show a chocolate crust, not the same as in the recipe for "Our Favorite Pie Crust." You can sometimes purchase a pre-made chocolate crumb crust in an aluminum pan, or make your own if you can find Nabisco/Kraft Chocolate Wafer Cookies, which are not easy to find!

Here's a homemade substitute recipe for corn syrup: http://www.recipezaar.com/74080
Corn syrup is WAY different than maple syrup.

Corn Syrup Substitute
For 1 cup, use 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar or firmly packed brown sugar plus 1/4 cup liquid (use liquid called for in recipe).

!LIGHT CORN SYRUP SUBSTITUTE
2 c. white sugar, 3/4 c. water, 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar, Dash of salt
Combine all ingredients in a heavy, large pan. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and put cover on it for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan. Uncover and cook until it reaches soft ball stage. Stir often.
Cool syrup

I made this on Sunday for guests after a dinner of fajitas. I just realized I forgot the corn syrup! It turned out great! I will definately make this again.........and I'll add the corn syrup next time. It was easy and delicious!

One could use Lyle's golden syrup in place of corn syrup I bet. And if you live in Europe, you can find this.

Yes, where is the chocolate pie crust recipe. The photo is chocolate but the video shows a regular crust.

I used sugar-free chocolate cookies for the crust and sugar-free Cool Whip instead of the heavy cream and sugar for the topping. It tasted great. My whole family enjoyed it.

I, too, was hoping there is an acceptable replacement for corn syrup. I have family members and friends who cannot have any corn products, so wonder if rice syrup, or honey, would work equally well?

vickymarrugat - No. Maple syrup will not replace corn syrup. The flavor of maple syrup is too strong. There is really no exact substitute for corn syrup. However, you might be able to use honey. It is basically the same texture. Another possibility would be to make a syrup of equal parts water and granulated sugar. Boil slowly until the desired thickness is achieved.
Good luck!

Corn Syrup is a bit thicker, and also with the maple flavor i'm not sure how it would come out... you could substitute golden syrup or honey and probably get better results (although the honey would be really sweet)

Don't know if this is the problem, but the recipe calls for melted chocolate coating the pie shell. That might explain the conflict.

The recipe said to paint the crust with the melted chocolate, therfore, making the pie crust chocolate. you do this AFTER it's baked, hence it was not in the pie crust recipe.

the photograph certainly suggests a chocolate pie crust, but the recipe provides for a standard crust....

In the ingredient list, you'll notice that "Our Favorite Pie Crust" is shown in blue. If you click on that, it will lead you to the classic pie crust recipe, rather than the cookie crust.

In the picture that's not a classic pie crust as the recipe states...it looks like a chocolate cookie crust. Where's that recipe?
