Chocolate Orange Mascarpone Pie

From pleclare 15 years ago

Wonderful chocolate orange cheese pie that uses mascarpone cheese instead of cream cheese.This is from Woman's Day.

Crust: Heat oven to 350. You'll need 9" pie pan
Pulse cookies in food processor until fine crumbs;add butter and process till blended. Press mixture evenly into bottom and sides of pie plate. Bake 12 mins.;cool on wire rack.Spread marmelade over cooled crust.
Filling: Microwave chocolate in glass bowl,15 seconds at a time,stirring till melted. Gently mix mascarpone,sugar,liqueur and salt in large bowl just till blended(do not stir too much or mix will curdle). Fold in melted chocolate till no white streaks remain.
If desired,put 1/2c chocolate mixture in a small ziptop freezer bag and snip off a tiny corner;reserve for garnish. Spread remaining chocolate mixture in cookie crust. Chill at least 2 hours till firm.
Garnish: Cut orange in 1/4" thick slices. Drain on paper towels,cut each slice in half,twist ends and arrange on pie. Pipe little dollops of reserved filling on orange twists to help secure. Serve at room temperature.
