Directions
Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Take your unbaked pie crust and brush the inside with melted butter, then set it aside for a moment. In a bowl, whisk together the cream, brown sugar, flour, and espresso powder until everything is smooth and well combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared pie crust. Pop the pie into the oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until it’s set. Once it’s done, take it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack. When it’s cool, finish it off by piping a generous border of chocolate whipped cream around the edges.
Serving Ideas
Serve chilled with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Pair it with a cup of espresso or a light dessert wine to enhance the coffee notes. Garnish with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an elegant touch.
Reheating And Storage
Keep the pie covered in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. It is best eaten within 2-3 days. Avoid freezing, as the texture of the cream topping may change when thawed. Re-chill before serving if it softens.
