Everybody's doing it! And I think with good reason - this is a tasty food fad. Honestly, I have never enjoyed pumpkin pie until this pie. What changed? The crisp caramelized sugar top makes things so much more interesting and in this case it was paired with a chocolate crust. If I haven't sold you yet, doing a brulee means you get to play with fire! I used a recipe from Bon Appetit though next time I will make a less fussy chocolate crust.
chocolate graham cracker pie crusts (yields 2 which is what I find the Bon Appetit filling recipe yields in my pie tins)
ReplyDeleteIngredients:
16 graham crackers, finely ground
10 T. unsalted butter, melted
1/3 c. sugar
1/3 c. cacao powder
1/8 t. salt
Bake the crust for 10 minutes at 350 F. Then add the Bon Appetit pumpkin pie filling and bake for 60 minutes.
