This Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie features chocolate and raspberry layers that taste like cheesecake. Topped with whipped cream and fresh raspberries, this is one dessert recipe that stands out!

Instructions
1. If you haven't done so already, cook a pie crust as per package directions, remove from heat and allow to cool
CHOCOLATE LAYER:
2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the chocolate chips.
3. Using a stand mixer {or hand mixer}, beat 4 oz of the cream cheese, then add in the melted chocolate and mix on low to combine. This is your chocolate layer.
4. Pour the chocolate layer into the cooked pie crust and set aside.
RASPBERRY LAYER
5. Wash stand mixer bowl and attachment, then add in the remaining 4oz of cream cheese and beat until smooth.
7. Slowly add in the heavy whipping cream and again beat until the lumps are gone. If really thick, add in 1/4 cup more heavy whipping cream.
8. Add in the raspberry JELL-O powder and whip until peaks form, then spoon this layer over the chocolate layer.
9. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving
WHIPPED TOPPING LAYER
10. Add whipped topping layer, or in a pattern of your choosing. I suggest both actually.
11. Top with fresh raspberries for garnish, and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use a homemade pie crust for this recipe, or a store bought crust. Just make sure to cook it! - You can decrease the calories by using low-fat or light cream cheese and/or whipped topping. YET, this will result in runnier layers and the light whipped topping melts fast and doesn't hold it's shape well.
