Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Take your unbaked pie crust and brush the inside with melted butter, then set it aside for a moment. In a bowl, whisk together the cream, brown sugar, flour, and espresso powder until everything is nicely combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared pie crust. Pop the pie into the oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the filling is set. Once it’s done, take it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack. When it’s cooled, use a piping bag to generously decorate the edges with chocolate whipped cream.
Why you’ll love it
This drink combines the rich bitterness of espresso with the smooth sweetness of sugar and cream. It’s a perfect balance that wakes you up and comforts you at the same time. The creamy texture makes it feel like a special treat, even on a busy day.
How to serve
Serve in a clear glass to show off the beautiful layers of espresso and cream. Pair it with a light pastry, like a croissant or biscotti, for a delightful afternoon snack. A sprinkle of cinnamon or cocoa on top adds a nice touch.
Storage & leftovers
If you have leftover espresso, store it in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 24 hours. Keep cream refrigerated and use fresh for the best texture. Avoid mixing ahead to prevent separation—combine just before serving.
