Ingredients

  • 2 – 9-inch refrigerated pie crust dough discs
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Unroll prepared pie crust and lay on to a cutting board.
  3. Using a 3-inch diameter cookie cutter, cut circles from the pie crust. Each pie crust should yield 10 circles. Combine dough scraps, roll flat, and cut the remaining 4 circles.
  4. Spray mini cupcake pan with nonstick cooking spray. Press each dough circle into the bottom and sides of the cupcake molds.
  5. Bake for 9 minutes, until edges become golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Combine chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every thirty seconds. When completely melted and smooth, transfer mixture to a measuring cup.
  7. Fill each shell with chocolate ganache and allow to rest at room temperature at least one hour.
  8. Remove from the pan and serve.
