Excellent. I used 2 x 1 ounce suqares of 70% cocoa bittersweet and 2 tbsps of Hershey's Special Dark chips...I want this really rich. And it was! Easy too. My six yesr old daughter did all of the mixing in the saucepan while I added the ingredients. Center was set for me at 42 minutes. Sprinkled with almonds as that's what I had. Dinner guests like this very much...the texture was sort of a cross between a brownie and a thich mousse. I'm mostly a cake person myself, but this certainly gave me my chocolate fix. ;-)

This is one of the best pies I've ever made, and so simple! I was just starting out making pies and was amazed at the simplicity of this one. Wonderful recipe!

I made this for thanksgiving with my boyfriend's family and it was a big hit, lots of requests for the recipe. Instead of using instant coffee I used 1/4th cup freshly brewed STRONG coffee, and I used about 1 1/2 cup of walnuts. I will definitely be making this again.

Sooo tasty! I used a frozen pie shell as we had one, and I used 1/4 cup Hershey's Dark chocolate chips instead of 2 oz unsweetened chocolate. Oh, and I used 1/4 cup strong coffee instead of instant and water. I put the walnut halves on top in a pretty pattern, and my husband was sure it was pecan pie... Poor him! He doesn't care for coffee or chocolate, but still thought it was okay! Thanks for sharing, Shotzy!

You know you have a winner when you hear, "I HAVE to have this recipe!" I didn't have the chocolate squares, so substituted 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Because we love coffee, used 3 tablespoons of coffee instead of one. Quick and easy recipe with great results! Everyone who eats it raves about it! Thanks!

I'm a coffee and chocolate freak, but this was missing a little something. I'm seriously thinking maybe subbing in semi sweet chips instead of unsweetened chocolate next time. This pie didn't taste bad. It was good. And it baked up very nice. I think it was maybe just a tad too bitter.

This pie is really delicious. I didn`t use a pastry but made it with cookie crust. I used cashew too. Our family loved it.

Very easy and very good! It got great reviews at our annual Memorial Day picnic. I used 1/4 cup extremely strong fresh coffee in mine.

This was really good and fudgy, not cakey. I think I would like it with a chcolate cookie crust. It wasnt the prettiest pie maybe instead of chopped nuts you could arrange halves in a pattern on the top. It would be really tasty without the nuts too and just some rosettes of whipped cream. I used strong brewed coffee not instant.

I've made this twice now and my fiancee and I love it! I've started using hot milk instead of water to dissolve the coffee, and it blends much easier that way. The pie also tastes even better after being refrigerated overnight. This is a good, easy, and not-so-messy pie recipe!

Absolutely delicious - I couldn't stop eating it! Wouldn't change a thing, except to experiment with new crusts, as my crust came out way too soft.

Delicious recipe! You can also top it with a variety of nuts! I've made it with walnuts, pecans, slivered almonds--it's great every time. My friends LOVED it. It's not a difficult recipe, but just be careful to melt everything together on LOW heat or your chocolate might burn, and stir constantly or it might separate (but it seems to be impossible to ruin)! Have all your ingredients nearby and measured before you begin. Also, 1/4 cup *strong* coffee will work if you don't have instant. My boyfriend said this was the best pie he'd ever tasted, and his roommates raved too.
