Chef Ron Lock Chocolate Pumpkin Pie recipe

Last year I baked Gesine Bullock-Prado's - Caramel Mascarpone Pumpkin Pie but with a traditional pie crust. I still want to try her pie crust, I'm sure it's delicious, but I'm unsure of my skills.

Still I like to see what else is out there and came across this recipe with chocolate pie crust (never tried that before)

Ann, I love GBakes. She seems very confident about the consistent results from her pie crust.

This is one recipe where I think a scale is best or--without one and to follow the recipe exactly, buy a 2 lb bag of flour. Two pounds of flour is always 2 lbs of flour, but cups of flour can vary in weight.

For others to enjoy Gesine's insight and humor, please read Ann's link which includes a very good explanation from Gesine about how the dough will initially look and why you shouldn't panic because it will turn out flakey and perfect.
