Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust, either store-bought, or homemade
  • 1 tablespoon unseasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 1/3 cup of walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup golden colored honey
  • 1/3 cup rum, plus 1 tablespoon
  • 3 1/2 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon unsalted butter, room temperature

Preparation

  1. If using homemade pie crust, make the crust, and when ready, roll out the dough to create a bottom and a top crust.
  2. For both homemade and store-bought, before lining the pie pan with the bottom crust, sprinkle the breadcrumbs on the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan, and then line the pie pan with dough. Using a fork, poke lots of holes into the bottom and sides of the dough.
  3. In a bowl, combine the walnuts, honey, and rum and stir until combined. (The filling mixture will be liquidy, but will soak into the crust during baking.)
  4. Pour the filling into the prepared pan and top with the top crust. Do not crimp the edges as we do in the States, but rather, cut off the crusts flush with the edge of the pan.
  5. Place pan on baking sheet and bake for about 40 minutes until the crust is golden.
  6. Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
  7. Put the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl.
  8. In a small saucepan heat the cream until very warm, then pour over the chocolate, stirring until the chocolate melts. Then stir in the butter.
  9. Once the chocolate glaze cools to room temperature, spread over the top of the pie.
