CHOCOLATE CINNAMON CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Stir together all crust ingredients. Press over bottom and up side of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes, then cool.
• Make filling:
• Melt chocolate in a large bowl.
• Stir together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons brown sugar in a small bowl.
• Whisk together whole eggs and yolks in another bowl, then whisk in cornstarch mixture.
• Stir together milk, cream, salt, and remaining brown sugar in a heavy medium saucepan and bring just to a boil over medium heat. Pour half of milk mixture into egg mixture in a slow stream, whisking, then pour egg mixture into remaining milk mixture. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, then boil, whisking, 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in butter and vanilla. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into melted chocolate and whisk to combine.
• Transfer hot filling to crust and chill, its surface covered with parchment, until filling is cold, about 3 hours.
• Make whipped cream:
• Beat cream with confectioners sugar and cinnamon using an electric mixer until it holds stiff peaks. Spoon over chilled filling.
• Make chocolate curls:
• Hold chocolate in your hands (or microwave on low power in 10-second intervals) until surface softens slightly. Using a vegetable peeler (preferably Y-shaped), "peel" large chocolate curls onto a paper towel. If curls are too brittle or don't form easily, rewarm chocolate just until surface softens.
• Sprinkle curls on pie.

• Combine 1/4 cup of sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1 cup whipping cream. Whip until stiff. Spread 1/2 of mixture over cooled chocolate layer.

CINNAMON PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Mix first six ingredients together with wire whisk- batter will be slightly lumpy.
• The batter is very thin.
• Pour into unbaked 10" or 11" pie crust. If you do use a 9" make sure it is a deep dish. This fills the shell completely and this is normal.
• Bake approximately 45 minutes or until set. If you see that it is not setting up properly, cover crust with foil or crust protector and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until set.
• Let cool before cutting.
