No-Bake Whoppers Pie: #52WeeksofSweets, Week 14

Looking for an easy no-bake dessert for your upcoming summer party or potluck?  This No-Bake Whoppers Pie will be the star of the dessert table this season!  A post from the popular #52WeeksofSweets series by Forks and Folly.

Over three months into the #52WeeksofSweets challenge, I’ve learned a lot. Mostly about myself.  I started out thinking it would be a crash course in pastry. What it’s turned out to be is a master-list of easy desserts that are so easy even I can do it. The major takeaway for me – I’m just not that into fancy desserts.  At least not making them myself.  We’ll leave that to the professionals.

What am I into? This no-bake Whoppers Pie. I love-love-love the flavor of malted candies and milkshakes.  And there’s no better way to serve Whoppers this summer than with this no-bake Whoppers Pie!  With an easy no-bake Whoppers crust, a delicious malted chocolate filling, and a vanilla malted whipped cream topping… It’s rich, it’s sweet, and it’s not bad looking, either.

No-Bake Whoppers Pie

Add Whoppers candies to a food processor and pulse until you get fine crumbs.

Combine the candy crumbs with the melted butter in a medium bowl then pour into a 9″ spring form pan.

Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.  Refrigerate while you make the filling.

In a heavy bottomed medium pan, add the yolks, half and half, milk, sugar and 3 tablespoons of the malted milk powder.  Whisk over low heat until thick, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and add the chocolate and 1 teaspoon of the vanilla extract.  Stir until smooth.

Remove the pie shell and pour in the custard.  Refrigerate overnight.

When ready to serve, whip the cream, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of malted milk powder until you get stiff peaks.

Spread over top of the pie and top with whole and crumbled Whoppers.
