Chocolate Pie<br />
• 1¼ cups granulated sugar<br />
• 3½ Tbsp. cocoa powder<br />
• 2 large eggs<br />
• ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted<br />
• 5 oz. can evaporated milk<br />
• 1 9-inch pie crust, homemade<br />
or store bought<br />
• whipped cream, for serving<br />
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl,<br />
whisk together the sugar and cocoa<br />
powder. Vigorously whisk in the<br />
eggs, butter, and evaporated milk<br />
until completely combined and<br />
smooth (batter will be thin).<br />
Pour batter into the pie crust and<br />
bake for about 50-55 minutes or<br />
until the filling sets and there is a<br />
thin crust on the top. (It might be<br />
slightly jiggly in the center, but that’s<br />
okay - as it sits and cools, it will<br />
set up more.) Remove from oven<br />
and let cool completely.<br />
Slice and serve<br />
with whipped<br />
cream and<br />
chocolate<br />
shavings!<br />
Apple Pie<br />
• 2 9” pie crusts<br />
• 7 large Granny Smith apples<br />
(peeled, cored, and sliced into<br />
½ inch slices)<br />
• ½ cup granulated sugar<br />
• ½ cup light brown sugar<br />
(loosely packed)<br />
• 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour<br />
• 1 tsp. ground cinnamon<br />
• ⅛ tsp. ground nutmeg<br />
• 1 Tbsp. lemon juice<br />
(plus the zest of half of a lemon)<br />
• 1 large egg (lightly beaten in a<br />
small bowl for egg wash)<br />
• 2 Tbsp. sanding sugar (optional)<br />
Prepare pie crusts per package<br />
directions – refrigerate. Place oven<br />
rack in the center position and<br />
preheat the oven to 400. In a large<br />
bowl, combine the sliced apples,<br />
granulated sugar, light brown sugar,<br />
flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and<br />
lemon juice and lemon zest; toss to<br />
coat evenly. Remove the pie crust<br />
dough from the fridge, and carefully<br />
lay the crust into the bottom of a<br />
deep-dish pie plate. Spoon the apple<br />
filling over the bottom crust and<br />
discard juices at the bottom of the<br />
bowl. Lay the second pie crust it<br />
over the apple filling.<br />
Use a sharp knife to trim the dough<br />
along the outside edge of the pie<br />
plate. Lift the edges where the two<br />
pie crusts meet, gently press to seal<br />
and fold them under. Rotate the pie<br />
plate and repeat this process until<br />
edges are neatly tucked under<br />
themselves. Cut 4 slits in the top of<br />
the dough to allow steam to vent.<br />
Place the pie on a baking sheet.<br />
Brush the surface of the pie crust<br />
with the egg wash and sprinkle with<br />
sanding sugar. Cover the edges with<br />
a pie shield or a strip of foil to keep<br />
them from over browning during<br />
the first 25 minutes. Bake at 400 for<br />
25 minutes. Carefully remove the<br />
pie shield, turn the oven down to<br />
375 and continue to bake for an<br />
additional 30-35 minutes or until<br />
the top is golden brown and the<br />
juices are bubbly. Cool at room<br />
temperature for at least 3 hours.<br />
