Chocolate Snuggle Boysenberry Pie

Submitted by graceful_thinking

"This pie was invented by mistake as I thought I was using gooseberries, not boysenberries. It turned out delicious and tastes like a chocolate covered cherry. =] The chocolate graham cracker crust can be substituted for a regular pie crust."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 10
• Yields: 1 pie
• Serves: 7-9

ingredients

• 3 cups boysenberries
• 1 1⁄2 cups sugar (give or take)
• 1⁄2 cup water
• 1⁄4 cup flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 chocolate graham wafer pie crust
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (separated into 2 half cups)
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons margarine

directions

1. Melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips in glass container in microwave with margarine(about 45 seconds).
2. Pour chocolate into crust and cover sides and bottom. Note: DO NOT TILT PIE CRUST IF USING GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST! IT WILL BREAK!
3. Put pie crust in refrigerator so chocolate will harden.
4. Combine boysenberries, sugar, water, flour, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a saucepan and cook until thick and hot.
5. Pour into crust and put back into the refrigerator.
6. When pie filling has become firm, melt the remaining chocolate and spread over top of pie so the boysenberries are "snuggled" between the two layers of chocolate.
7. Let pie chill until top layer of chocolate has hardened.
8. Note: You may want to cut the pieces small because this pie is very rich.
