• Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
• Stir in melted chocolate, coffee, and vanilla. Gradually add 1 cup pecans and flour stirring well.
• Spoon the chocolate mixture into the pastry shell (or your own pie crust). Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup pecans. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out almost clean. Cool completely on a pie rack. Serve with whipped cream.

TAHINI FUDGE PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or butter a 9- to 9 1/2-inch pie pan.
• Combine the cookies, espresso powder and salt in a food processor until very finely ground. With the food processor running, drizzle in the butter and blend until combined. Transfer the mixture to the pie pan and pack it very firmly on the bottom and sides. Bake for 6 minutes.
• For the fudge: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, espresso powder, salt and heavy cream and whisk to combine. Continue to cook, whisking, until smooth and glossy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• When the crust is done baking, pour most of the fudge into the crust and spread it evenly around the bottom. Reserve a few spoonfuls to drizzle on top. Stick the crust in the fridge to cool completely while you make the filling.
• For the filling: Combine the cream cheese and tahini in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whip until smooth. Mix in the powdered sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and a pinch or two of salt (if there's salt in the tahini already, you'll just need a little bit or none-you can add salt to taste!), and beat until combined. With the mixer on low, drizzle in the heavy cream, then gradually increase the speed to high and mix until pale and fluffy. Pour the mixture into the cooled crust, then drizzle with the reserved fudge (if it's firmed up by now, you can reheat it gently until it's drizzly), swirl it around, sprinkle with flaky salt if desired, then let set in the fridge for 4 hours or up to overnight. Enjoy!

BROWNIE FUDGE PIE

• Bake for 15 mins, remove the paper and beans, then bake 5 mins more until the pastry is crisp and pale golden.
• Beat the eggs and sugar together to create a mousse-like texture. Stir in the vanilla and melted butter, then fold in the flour and cocoa. Scatter the nuts and chocolate over the pastry case and pour the filling on top. Bake for 30 mins until firm with a slight wobble. Trim away the excess pastry and leave to cool. If freezing, wrap in cling film and foil. To defrost, unwrap and thaw.
