Method
 

Pie Crust
  1. In a bowl, mix flour, vanilla sugar, spices and cold butter just using your fingers. Press down the ingredients with your fingers until it has a consistency of flour. The goal is to make a sticky dough close to cookie dough.
  2. If the consistency of it is too dry, add tablespoons of cold water. When you make a ball out of these ingredients, keep it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180℃ and prepare a pie tin for baking.
  4. Melt the milk chocolate over the boiling water or in the microwave. Add heavy cream and stir until the ganache is ready. Let the chocolate cool - the ganache will get thicker.
  5. Roll out the dough on the floured surface and put over the pie baking tin. Cut the sides off and make holes using a fork. Brush the pie crust with eggwash.
  6. Pour the ganache over the pie crust.
  7. In a bowl mix all the ingredients for filling. Give it a good stir an pour over the pie crust. Bake for 45 - 55 minutes until the top is brown. Then I turned the oven off and opened the door on the oven for an extra 5 minutes. Get the pie out and let cool completely.
