Full disclosure: I’m not a huge fan of caramel. It’s just one of those flavors I never got into. But caramel chips mixed with chocolate liqueur make for a wonderful marriage of yumminess. I fried these chestnuts for the topping, and the results speak for themselves.
2 cups caramel chips
5 eggs
3 tablespoons chocolate liqueur (I used Lavie)
2 3-ounce (85-gram) packages Gefen Shelled Chestnuts
2 tablespoons margarine (I used Earth Balance)
1 tablespoon hazelnut cappuccino liqueur (I used Zachlawi)
In a double boiler, melt the caramel chips.
When melted but still over the boiler, add the eggs one at a time, stirring quickly so they don’t curdle. Add the chocolate liqueur and mix vigorously.
Pour into graham cracker crust. Freeze in a deep freezer for an hour.
Chop the chestnuts, but not too finely because they’ll turn into a paste.
Melt margarine in a frying pan. Once it’s bubbling, add the chopped chestnuts and fry, stirring, for about seven minutes, until almost crisp.
Quickly add hazelnut liqueur and cook until almost evaporated, about two minutes.
Remove chestnuts from pan and let cool. Sprinkle over frozen pie.
Return the pie to the freezer until ready to serve.
