Ingredients

  • FOR THE CRUST:
  • 2 cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 6 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar, Packed
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 3 ounces, weight Bittersweet Chocolate
  • _____
  • FOR THE FILLING:
  • 15 ounces, weight Pumpkin
  • 12 ounces, fluid Evaporated Milk
  • ¾ cups Light Brown Sugar, Packed
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1-½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¾ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 6 ounces, weight Semisweet Chocolate
  • 4 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1 ounce, weight Milk Chocolate

Preparation

Graham Cracker Crust:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Combine graham crackers, melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon in a bowl. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 1/2 inch pie pan. Bake 8-10 minutes.

Roughly chop bittersweet chocolate. Sprinkle chocolate over bottom of the hot crust and return to oven for 1 minute so that it melts. Remove it from the oven and spread chocolate along bottom of crust and up sides.

Allow crust to cool.

Filling:

Reduce oven to 325°F. Mix pumpkin, evaporated milk, brown sugar, eggs, cornstarch, vanilla, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice until thoroughly combined.

In a large heatproof bowl set over simmering water, melt semisweet chocolate and butter. Stir continuously until smooth.

Remove chocolate from heat. Whisk 1/3 of pumpkin mixture into chocolate. Whisk in remaining pumpkin mixture until incorporated.

Pour filling into crust and bake for 55-60 minutes. Center should be set but still wobbly.

Let cool. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours (preferably overnight). Just before serving, drizzle with the 1 ounce of melted milk chocolate.

this recipe looks amazing and I wanted to make it for thanksgiving next week. Do you think it will keep if I make it 2-3 days in advance, or should I just make it 1 day in advance as suggested? Thank you!
