I used a 10″ pie pan and made my own crust. I pressed the crust down as far as I could in the pan to make room for the filling. I found that turning the food processor on the highest speed and letting it run for a few minutes made the filling thicker so it stood up to the chocolate better. I also had too much chestnut filling, even after taking out the cup for the chocolate layer. Next time I think I will double the chocolate layer to help with this. Mine didn’t sink to the bottom but it did mix a little, so I spooned blobs of the chocolate in different parts of the top and spread it with a spatula. Made an eggnog whipped cream to add on top with shaved chocolate. It needed a few tweaks but overall very tasty pie!

[…] Christmas pie (OK – It’s not totally traditional. But, it is made with roasted chestnuts – a very traditional flavor.) […]

In reply to KC. I'm so sorry the recipe didn't work for you. I must have used a deep dish pan (I don't remember for sure, since I made this recipe ages ago.) But, I feel terrible that it didn't work for several of you and I'm going to update the recipe to clarify that the pan should be deep dish. And, when I have time, I will remake it, do some testing, and give an update.

I had the same problems with (1) the two mixtures being too gloopy and mixing together when poured and (2) an overflow of ingredients, as the sheer amount will not fit into a 9″ pan. (And I actually used a cake pan, so I can’t imagine how this would fit into a regular shalow pie pan.)

Other than reducing the amount of filling, I think the problem with this recipe is that it doesn’t tell you that you should not be mixing the eggs and maple syrup mixture with the processed whipped cream and walnut mixture out of the processor – it should be processed together so that it retains its fluffy, airy texture instead of turning into a loose pancake batter.

In reply to Nicole de B.. I had the same trouble with this as well. What I want to know was your oven fan-forced?? Was your pie dish a deep pie dish??

I made this tonight for our new neighbors and it was met with rave reviews from everyone. There was a bit of overflow (I put a cookie sheet under it while baking). The few spoonfuls that didn’t fit in the pan were delicious treats for me! Awesome recipe.

In reply to Nicole de B.. I'm so sorry that you had these problems, Nicole! My chocolate portion sat right on the top, it didn't sink at all. Also, the batter fit in my 9" pie pan. Maybe it has to do with the depth of the pan? I'm glad that you at least liked the taste (that's the most important!).

I just made this pie. I should say ATTEMPTED to make this as written. There’s no way this filling fits in 1 – 9 inch pie shell. And the chocolate mixture was too heavy and sank to the bottom, creating an overflowing mess. I scooped out what I could salvage and mixed it all together, chocolate and plain, and then baked it in a 9″ pie shell, with a bit of extra filling (even with the amount that went in the garbage with the overfilled messy crust). Tastes beautiful, but I felt like something is missing in the directions?!? And it would easily make 2 9″ pies.
