Ingredients

Pie Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp milk

Filling

  • 1 can (14oz/396g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 8 chocolate candies

Instructions

Pie Crust

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). With the help of a mixer or food processor mix all ingredients until the dough is well combined (dough should look like wet sand).
  • Place dough in pie pan. Press it with your fingers onto the bottom and up to the sides (bottom should be around 1 inch-1/2cm thick). Line pie crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
  • Bake crust for around 10 minutes, remove pie weights/dried beans and parchment paper and bake for 5 more minutes. Remove from oven and let crust cool completely before adding filling.

Filling

  • Place all ingredients in a pan (except candies) and over medium heat stir until mixture thickens. Remove from heat, transfer to a glass bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it cool completely before pouring filling to crust.

Assembling

  • Pour filling in pie crust and sprinkle with crushed candies. Place it in the fridge for 1 hour or in the freezer for 20 minutes allowing filling to firm. Be careful when unmolding.
