Sin Pie image

This rich chocolate and walnut pie is deserving of its name! From the R.S.V.P. section of an April 1986 issue of Bon Appetit magazine. The recipe was requested from the Joie de Vivre restaurant in Chatham, New Jersey.

I served this sin pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was heavenly. The ice cream helped to balance out the richness of the pie.

I sprinkled some cinnamon sugar on top of the pie before baking it. It gave the crust a nice caramelized flavor.

I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the filling and it gave it a really nice flavor. I highly recommend trying this variation.

I used a pre-made pie crust for this recipe, but I think it would be even better with a homemade crust.

I made this sin pie in a 9-inch pie plate, but I think it would have been better in a 10-inch pie plate. The filling was a little too thick for the 9-inch plate.

This sin pie is very easy to make, but it does take some time to bake. Be sure to plan ahead if you're making this for a special occasion.

I'm not a fan of nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from this recipe. The pie was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the walnuts.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown properly. I think I might have rolled it out too thin. Other than that, the pie was delicious.

This sin pie was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll try using a lighter cheese, like ricotta.
