Delicious chocolate cherry cream pie recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups crushed chocolate cookies
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 2 cups pitted fresh cherries
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon agar-agar
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for topping)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of crushed chocolate cookies with ½ cup of melted butter.
  3. Stir until well mixed and resembles wet sand.
  4. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until slightly firm.
  6. Let it cool completely.
  7. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of pitted fresh cherries and ¼ cup of sugar.
  8. Cook until the cherries release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
  9. Remove from heat.
  10. In another small bowl, dissolve 1 tablespoon of agar-agar in 3 tablespoons of water and mix into the cherry mixture while it’s still warm.
  11. Allow this mixture to cool slightly before proceeding.
  12. In a large mixing bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese with ¾ cup of powdered sugar until smooth.
  13. Gradually add in ½ cup of heavy cream followed by ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder.
  14. Beat until light and fluffy—approximately 3-4 minutes.
  15. Gently fold half of the cooled cherry mixture into the chocolate cream filling to create a marbled effect.
  16. Pour this delightful mixture into your cooled chocolate crust and spread evenly.
  17. Spoon the remaining cherry mixture on top of the chocolate filling in swirls or dollops as desired.
  18. Refrigerate your pie for at least four hours or overnight if possible to allow it to set properly.
  19. Before serving, whip an additional cup of heavy cream until soft peaks form—add a tablespoon of powdered sugar if you like it sweeter!
  20. Spread or pipe this fluffy cream generously over your set pie for that final touch.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container.

Serve chilled, no need to reheat.

Pair with whipped cream topping.

Use fresh cherries for best flavor.
