Typically, dessert for me means chocolate. Of course, I do love a good fruit pie, so I figured I would have the best of both worlds and throw some chocolate in my fruit pie. This was a definite winner! The crust is home-made, but the filling is kind of a cheat; nevertheless, the taste is delightful.
I used a recipe I found online for the crust. It was delicious and easy to make from things I already had in the house. It's called French Pastry Pie Crust and you can find it here: allrecipes pie crust.
I separated the dough, spread half of it in a pie pan, and set the other half aside. I filled the crust in the pan with canned raspberries and, get this, milk chocolate hershey kisses!
I put them in upside down (except for that one straggler who fell in right-side-up. Oops!). Looks kind of weird, but tasted awesome. I put the top on, pressed the edges together, cleaned them up, finished by pressing the edges with a fork, and baked on 425 degrees until the edges and top was golden and firm (at lease 20-25 minutes, but it will depend on your oven). Before serving, I allowed the pie to cool for about an hour.
I also put some brown sugar on the top before baking. Take it or leave it. Enjoy!
