Chocolate Pie

Ingredients for approx. 12 pieces

For the dough:

200 g wheat flour (type 405)
50 g cocoa
180 g butter, 80 g sugar
1 egg white (weight cat. M)
2 tbsp. whole milk

For the topping:

200 g Kölln® Muesli Chocolate
50 g butter
50 g sugar

For the cream:

2 tbsp. starch
300 ml whole milk
150 g dark chocolate
1 egg yolk (weight cat. M)
white chocolate bark or flakes for decorating

Preparation

Make a short pastry with the dough ingredients. Knead this by hand on a lightly floured worktop until you get a smooth dough and roll it out thin between clingfilm. Line a pie dish (ø28 cm) with the dough and refrigerate. Preheat the oven. Lightly caramelise the topping ingredients in a pot, spread on the dough, flatten and bake. In the meantime stir the starch and a little bit of milk until smooth. Melt the chocolate in the remaining milk and bring mass to boil. Pour dissolved starch into the milk mass and let boil briskly. Let mass cool slightly. Whisk egg yolks and stir quickly into the chocolate cream, spread on the cake and leave to set for 3-4 hours. Decorate the finished cake with chocolate bark or flakes.
