Ingredients

Crust:

Butter for greasing

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

28 grams bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped

30 chocolate wafer cookies

Filling:

2/3 cup sugar

1/4 cup cornstarch

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Pinch of salt

6 large egg yolks

2 cups full cream milk

1/2 cup chilled whipping cream

6 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate or milk chocolate,chopped

2 tablespoons orange juice

Topping:

Whipped cream

chocolate curls

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Crust:

Grease a 20cm glass pie dish with butter. Stir butter and chocolate in heavy small saucepan over low heat until melted.

Finely grind cookies in processor. Add chocolate mixture. Process until crumbs are moistened. Press crumb mixture into prepared pie dish. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes

NOTE:If you desire a more crispy crust,bake it in a 350 F preheated oven for 8 minutes and cool.

Filling:

1-Whisk together sugar,cornstarch,cocoa powder and salt in heavy medium saucepan to blend.

2- Whisk in egg yolks to form thick paste. Gradually whisk in milk, then cream. Whisk over medium-high heat until mixture thickens and boils 1 minute.

3-Remove from heat. Add chocolate and whisk until smooth. Whisk in orange juice and vanilla. Cool 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Transfer filling to frozen crust. Chill until cold, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day

Pipe some rosettes using a piping bag fitted with star nozzle and sprinkle some chocolate curls just before serving.
