Instructions
*See Apple Pie recipe for crust instructions
- To create the crust, trim the edges of dough hanging off of the edges of the pie dish.
- Use the thumb and index finger on your dominant hand, separating them by ½ inch apart, like you’re going to pinch something.
- Press these fingers on the outside edge of the dough, forming a small ‘V’ while simultaneously, using your non-dominant finger, to press on the inside edge, and lock in the ‘V’ shape. Repeat these steps until complete.
- Lightly prick the pie crust with a fork. Set in the freezer for 10 – 15 minutes until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 375F and set a large baking tray on the middle rack to heat. Line the unbaked pie shell with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or beans.
Set the pie pan onto the baking tray in the oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes.
- Remove the pie weights from the pie crust, baking for another 10 minutes, until slightly golden and baked. Set aside to cool slightly. Remove the baking tray from the oven as well.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350F.
- In a small pot, melt the butter. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Whisk until smooth. Slowly stream in the melted butter, mixing together until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips, and pour the entire mixture into the prepared pie shell. Whisk the egg in a small bowl, and brush the edges of the crust lightly. Sprinkle the egg-washed crust with granulated sugar.
- Bake for 40 minutes until the filling is puffed and slightly jiggly. Let the pie cool for 25 – 30 minutes.
- Serve with sweetened whipped cream! Enjoy!!
