Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Place pie dough into a pie dish with weights and blind bake for 15 minutes with weights, then remove weights and bake without for 5 more minutes. Remove from oven.
Reset heat on oven for 350°F.
In a medium microwave resistant bowl, add chocolates and butter. Heat in the microwave for 60-90 seconds. Stopping to stir every 15 seconds, until completed melted and mixed.
In the bowl of your mixer, mix sugars, flour, salt, cinnamon, cayenne. Mix until incorporated. Then slowly mix in your chocolate and butter mixture. Then add the heavy whipping cream, and finally the eggs.
Remove from mixer and stir with a rubber spatula to make sure you don't miss any ingredients on bottom of bowl.
Pour into blind baked pie crust. And smooth top with an offset spatula.
Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Until it's just slightly jiggly in the center.
Set out and let cool, the inside of the pie will fall slightly and most likely will be cracked!
Then refrigerate for 1+ hours.
Add whipped cream and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Pie dough: you can use a store-bought dough, or the homemade one on my website.- Chocolate: You want baking chocolate or big bars as it will melt properly, not chocolate chips which will retain shape. It's also super rich, so I served smaller pieces for sure.- Spice level: Make this right for you. It definitely has a kick of heat to it.
