Ingredients

• 1.5 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1.25 cups dark chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon coarse sea salt
• 1 cup whipped cream, for topping
• 2 tablespoons dark chocolate shavings, for garnish
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon, for garnish

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs with the melted unsalted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the cookie crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Refrigerate the crust for at least 15 minutes to firm up.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Set aside for later use.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, remaining 0.5 cups of heavy cream, cooled melted chocolate, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, cayenne pepper, and coarse sea salt until fully combined and smooth.

Step 6

Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream, until the filling is well combined.

Step 7

Pour the prepared filling into the chilled cookie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm.

Step 8

When ready to serve, remove the pie from the freezer and allow it to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.

Step 9

Top the frozen adobe pie with whipped cream. Garnish with dark chocolate shavings and a light dusting of ground cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.

Step 10

Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
