Strawberry-Raspberry Cream Pie & Dinner Party for two!

Comments (0) ↓
Today was, well, wonderous. Not only was it the perfect end to the weekend, but I had planned this extravagant little dinner party for my amazing boyfriend and I. I don't cook. I bake and I'm fortunate enough to have two amazing cooks in my life so I can focus on making the sweeter things in life.

Well today, I decided was a perfect day to go all out, make a huge mess, and a gianormous feast. Refrigerate until chocolate hardens (at least 2 hours). Trust me, the chocolate must be hard. The Menu? Southwest Eggrolls (adapted from the vegetarian version here) with guacamole and salsa Margarita Chicken Pita Pizza Very Berry Mojitos Raspberry Strawberry Chocolate Cream Pie I actually originally intended to make mini cheesecakes, but after an epic fail I had to go with Plan B. Scrounge up what I had laying around and make it into something uber delicious and sweet.

Let me tell you this: I should probably go with Plan B more often because it was amazing. This pie tasted like smores + chocolate covered strawberries. My boyfriend and I ate it out of the pan. We felt gluttonous, but it was too good to stop. In fact, I'm not known for eating my desserts, only creating them. But this one, well, I'm pretty much in love with berries and pie, so I broke the rules...
