For a deeper chocolate flavor, use Dutch-processed cocoa powder. If the crust is browning too quickly, tent it loosely with foil during the last few minutes of baking. Allow the crust to cool completely before adding any filling to prevent it from becoming soggy. For a nutty flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of finely ground almonds to the dry ingredients. You can use a food processor to combine the ingredients. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse sand, then press into the pie plate.

May 19, 2025I had some trouble with the crust sticking to the pan. Next time, I'll grease it better or use parchment paper.

Sep 27, 2023The baking time was perfect, and the crust came out perfectly crisp. Will definitely make this again.
