Description

A light and heavenly fall dessert!

Ingredients

  • 1-¼ cup Pomegranate Juice Plus 2 Tablespoons, Divided
  • 1 envelope (1/4 Oz. Envelope) Unflavored Gelatin
  • 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 3 ounces, weight White Chocolate, Melted
  • ¼ cups Sugar
  • 2 whole Graham Cracker Crusts
  • Pomegranate Arils And Extra Whipped Cream, For Decorating

Preparation

Pour the 2 tablespoons of pomegranate juice into a small, heatproof bowl. Empty the contents of the gelatin packet into it. Stir slightly to incorporate, and then let soften.

In a small sauce pan, bring the rest of the pomegranate juice to a boil. Pour the boiling juice over the gelatin mixture, and stir until the gelatin dissolves completely. Allow to cool.

In a large bowl, beat the whipping cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Pour in the melted white chocolate and sugar, and beat until combined. Pour the cooled pomegranate mixture into the whipped cream mixture; it will be very soupy. Beat on medium speed until well-combined.

Pour half the filling into each of the two crusts and refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving. Decorate with whipped cream and pomegranate arils, if desired.

Oh, I definitely think that any of you who are thinking about trying this recipe should immediately finish it, then give all your pies to me. It’s just too dangerous otherwise, and since I’m a trained professional, I’ll be perfectly safe from its evil ways.

Yep, it’s that good. The whipping cream got a bit stiffer than “soft peaks,” so it wasn’t at all runny when it was all mixed, but it’s all good. I mean, bad, very very bad. I’ll dispose of it for you, it’s the kind of gal I am. PM me for the address. :)

This looks fantastic! My husband adores pomegranate since I hooked him on them a few years ago!

This is being made TOMORROW, oh yes it is, except that I’m making individual mini-pies…and it’s NOT so I can taste one before Thanksgiving, either.

At least it’s not ONLY so I can taste one before Thanksgiving. :)

I am going to make the filling, pour it into the tart shells, cover, and refrigerate until Thursday AM, when I’ll pipe on the whipped cream. Mmmmmmmm.

The first time I made this (Christmas, 2010) I had a ton of filling left over. For Christms 2011, I knew to buy an extra crust. Now, coming to write this review I see that it has been corrected in the original recipe also.

Now, with the correction, I can say the pie is wonderful! It is easy to make and has a sophisticated flavor.

I thought this was really great. Not too hard and pomegranates are my favorite. :)
If you get beads/chips when you pour chocolate into the cream, it’s because of the temperature difference. The chocolate needs to cool.

I had white chocolate beads in my pie as well. Any suggestions to remedy that would be helpful. The amount of leftover filling is pretty ridiculous. Don’t plan on putting a lid on this & certainly don’t travel with it, if you can help it.

This was very easy to make and very tasty. It was a beautiful pie for Christmas.

I found I had too much filling the first time I made it with a standard crust, but the husband and dogs were more than happy to eat the extra. I got the larger graham cracker crust for the actual Christmas pie (this is why I make a tester, I guess) and it worked perfectly!

Absolutely wonderful. The pie was easy to make, and it set very well. It tasted almost like cheesecake, and had everyone at Thanksgiving scrambling to get some before it ran out.
