Ingredients

4 servings

1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust 1 tablespoon melted butter 2 cups heavy cream 1 cup packed brown sugar ¼ cup all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder 1 cup chocolate whipped cream (such as Chocolate Reddi-wip®) (Optional)

Instructions

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s warming up, brush the inside of your unbaked pie crust with some melted butter and set it aside. In a bowl, whisk together the cream, brown sugar, flour, and espresso powder until everything is combined and smooth. Pour this mixture into the prepared crust. Pop the pie in the oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the filling is set. Once it’s done, take it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack. When the pie is cool, finish it off by piping chocolate whipped cream generously around the edges.
