This easy chocolate pie recipe comes together with simple ingredients, bakes in under 30 minutes, and chills into the perfect sliceable dessert for holidays, dinner parties, or weeknight cravings.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place chocolate chips in a heat safe bowl.
Warm the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer. Pour over the chocolate and let sit for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir until completely smooth.
Add the egg, cayenne, ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until fully combined.
Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust and smooth the top.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the center is set with a slight jiggle.
Cool the pie to room temperature, then cover and chill in the refrigerator until fully cold.
