Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 cups pretzel, crushed
8 tablespoons butter, melted
⅓ cup brown sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
1 ½ cups sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
4 egg yolks
3 cups milk
7 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Combine pretzels, butter, and brown sugar. Press mixture into pie pan.
  • Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Whisk cornstarch, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan.
  • Mix in egg yolks and milk, and heat mixture on medium heat. Gently mix for about 6 minutes or until the mixture thickens like a pudding.
  • Once thick, take the mixture off the heat and immediately add your chocolate, vanilla, butter, and lemon juice.
  • Mix until ingredients are incorporated into a smooth pudding texture.
  • Pour filling into the cooled crust and smooth with a spatula as desired. (Any extra filling can be saved in cups and eaten immediately, or chilled for pudding cups.)
  • Let the pie chill in the fridge uncovered for at least 4 hours.
  • Enjoy!
