When reader Elaine sent me a recipe for Coca-Cola Pie I practically swooned. Regulars here know that I have a bit of an addiction to the beverage so when the chance came to put a can of Coke into a pie, I jumped.

The recipe was on another website, but I thought I'd try it and adapt it and enjoy it.
So, a few takeaways my my experience. The recipe calls for a whole can of Coke! Man, was that satisfying, just cracking open a can and pouring 12 ounces of fizzy wonderfulness into the filling. You have to put the filling over medium heat and and stir until it thickens. But you don't want to stir it until it is like concrete....a thick pudding is probably the way to go
The final verdict: a VERY good pie, very rich....wonderful topped with cold whipped cream. Does it taste like Coke? No, unfortunately, not really....tastes like a good chocolate pie, though , and that is not a bad thing.
The "ganache" is an easy microwaved topping of chocolate chips and heavy cream, and that was delicious.
