Triple-Chocolate Pumpkin Pie image

A hidden layer of bittersweet chocolate coats the crumb crust, semisweet imparts a silken smoothness to the customary custard, and a drizzle of milk chocolate on top teases the eye -- and the appetite.

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups finely ground graham cracker crumbs (about 16 crackers)
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate (preferably 61 percent cacao), finely chopped
6 ounces semisweet chocolate (preferably 55 percent cacao), chopped
2 ounces (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Ground cloves
1 ounce milk chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugars, salt, and cinnamon in bowl. Firmly press mixture into bottom and up sides of a deep, 9 1/2-inch pie dish. Bake until firm, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and sprinkle bittersweet chocolate over bottom of crust. Return to oven to melt chocolate, about 1 minute. Spread chocolate in a thin layer on bottom and up sides. Let cool on a wire rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
  • Make the filling: In a large heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, melt semisweet chocolate and butter, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
  • Mix pumpkin, milk, brown sugar, eggs, cornstarch, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and a pinch of cloves in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/3 pumpkin mixture into chocolate mixture. Whisk in remaining pumpkin mixture until completely incorporated.
  • Transfer pie dish to a rimmed baking sheet, and pour pumpkin mixture into crust. Bake until center is set but still a bit wobbly, 55 to 60 minutes. Let cool in pie dish on a wire rack. Refrigerate until well chilled, at least 8 hours (preferably overnight). Before serving, drizzle melted milk chocolate on top. Serve immediately.

This pie is a waste of time and ingredients. It turned out terrible.

I would not recommend this recipe. The pie was dry and crumbly, and the filling was bland.

This pie is okay, but it's not my favorite. I found the filling to be a bit too bland.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin pie, but this one is pretty good. The chocolate helps to balance out the sweetness of the pumpkin.

This pie is a bit dense, but it's still very good. I would recommend chilling it for a few hours before serving.

I had some trouble with the crust, but the pie turned out great. The filling is rich and flavorful, and the chocolate chips add a nice touch.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still delicious. I would recommend using a dark chocolate instead of a milk chocolate.

This pie is so easy to make, and it always turns out perfect. I love that I can use a store-bought pie crust to save time.

I'm not usually a fan of pumpkin pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The chocolate adds a richness and depth of flavor that really elevates the pie.

This pie was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The combination of chocolate and pumpkin was unique and delicious, and the crust was flaky and perfect. I'll definitely be making this again.
