1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
03 -
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
04 -
1 teaspoon hot water

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

# Instructions:
01 -
Gently melt the chocolate chips in a small saucepan over low to medium heat. Once they begin to soften, remove from heat and stir continuously until you achieve a smooth, glossy consistency. Let this cool for about 10 minutes.
02 -
In a medium mixing bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in hot water and let it sit for 2 minutes to develop the flavor.
03 -
Add the sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract to your coffee mixture. Stir everything together until well blended and smooth.
04 -
Pour the cooled melted chocolate into your sour cream mixture and stir thoroughly until completely combined and silky.
05 -
Spread this rich chocolate mixture evenly into your prepared chocolate pie crust and place the pie in the refrigerator while you prepare the topping.
06 -
In a clean medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder. Using an electric hand mixer, beat the mixture until stiff peaks form and it holds its shape.
07 -
Remove the pie from the refrigerator and carefully spread the chocolate whipped cream over the base layer, smoothing it evenly to the edges. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips on top for decoration, then freeze for at least 6 hours before slicing and serving.
# Notes:

The pie needs to freeze for a minimum of 6 hours, so plan ahead when making this dessert.
