Ingredients

For the Pie Crust:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 4-5 tablespoons ice water

For the Chocolate Filling:

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 3 large eggs
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup whole milk

Instructions to Make Golden Corral Chocolate Chess Pie

For the Pie Crust:

1. In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Pulse to mix.
2. Add the chilled, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. With the food processor running, add ice water one tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together. Shape it into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
6. Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges as desired.

For the Chocolate Filling:

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
2. Add cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
3. Gradually add the milk, mixing continuously to maintain a smooth consistency.
4. Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared pie crust.

Baking the Pie:

1. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the filling is set, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
2. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil to prevent burning.
3. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Serve and Enjoy:

1. Once cooled, slice the Golden Corral Chocolate Chess Pie into wedges.
2. Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent experience.
