Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup whipped cream or whipped topping (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until slightly golden and set. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Step 5

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

Step 6

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate mixture, sweetened condensed milk, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 7

In another bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the remaining 1 cup of heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.

Step 8

Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in batches until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 9

Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 10

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until the filling is firm and set.

Step 11

Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder, if desired.

Step 12

Slice the pie and serve chilled. Enjoy!
