How to make it
- Directions
- Heat oven to 375ยบ F. In a food processor, grind wafers and pecans until fine crumbs form. Add melted butter; process until moistened. Transfer mixture to a 9" pie plate; press into bottom and up sides (use base of a dry measuring cup to help). Bake until fragrant, 8 - 10 minutes; let cool. Place a large fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl; set aside. In a medium saucepan, off heat, whisk 2/3 cup sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. A few tbsp. at a time, whisk in milk, being sure to incorporate cornstarch. Whisk in egg yolks. Over medium heat, whisking constantly, cook mixture until first large sputtering bubbles form. Reduce heat to low; continuing to whisk constantly, cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; immediately pour through sieve into bowl. Stir in tsp. vanilla and 2 tbsp. cold butter. Pour pudding into crust. Place plastic wrap directly on surface to prevent skin from forming; chill at least 2 hours and up to 1 day. Just before serving, beat cream, remaining tsp. sugar, and remaining tsp. vanilla until soft peaks form. Spread whipped cream over pudding, and sprinkle with pecans.
