Instructions
Pudding
- In a bowl, add yolks, milk, and cold brew coffee. Whisk until yolks are thoroughly combined.
- Add the sugar, cornstarch, and salt into a medium saucepan. Whisk until cornstarch is incorporated.
- Add 1/2 cup of the milk mixture into the saucepan and whisk until smooth. Add remaining mixture and whisk.
- Turn the burner on medium heat and whisk pretty consistently to prevent the pudding from scorching or clumps forming.
- Once the pudding comes up to a boil, let it boil for 1 minute while whisking constantly.
- Run pudding through a fine mesh strainer. Avoid pushing the pudding through the strainer because the bits of eggs will push through too.
- Whisk in the 3 tablespoons of butter until combined.
- Place the plastic wrap on the surface of the pudding. Place in the fridge until it’s chilled and set up.
Crust
- In a mixing bowl, add in the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter. Stir until it looks like wet sand.
- Press the graham crackers into a 9 1/2 pie plate. Set in the fridge while the filling is being made.
- Cream PieIn a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese. Beat on medium until creamy.
- Add in 3/4 – 1 cup of pudding mixture. Beat on medium until incorporated. Add in remaining pudding and beat until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, add in the heavy cream. Beat on medium until soft peaks form.
- In a small bowl, add in the instant coffee granulated and hot water. Stir until the granules are dissolved. Scrape into the whipped cream.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla into the whipped cream.
- Beat on high until stiff peaks form.
- Add 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cream cheese and pudding mixture. Beat with the hand mixer until incorporated.
- Add the next 1/3 of the whipped cream and beat until incorporated.
- Add the remaining whipped cream and beat until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and fold in any remaining whipped cream.
- Scrape into the chilled graham cracker crust. Spread it to the edges.
Whipped Cream
- In the small coffee paste bowl you used earlier, add in instant coffee granules and hot water. Stir until granules are dissolved.
- Place the heavy cream in a large mixing bowl. You can reuse the one from earlier. Using a hand mixer, beat until soft peaks form.
- Add the coffee paste, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
- Beat on high until stiff peaks form.
- Place the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a 1M tip. Pipe swirls on the top of the cream.
- Add chocolate covered espresso beans on top of the whipped cream.
- Place in the freezer until firm. Once firm, cover with plastic wrap.
- Serve partially thawed or frozen. To partially thaw the pie, place in the fridge for 1 hour. Don’t let it thaw completely, it will just become a big globby mess.
