Method
PIE DOUGH
1
Combine flour, cocoa, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Using your fingers, mix the butter into the ingredients until the mixture is in pea-sized pieces. Add the water and mix until the dough comes together. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
2
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4.
3
Remove dough from fridge. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin on a floured surface. Place the pie plate on top of the dough and cut the dough around the plate to get the correct shape. Place the dough into the pie plate and gently push down to secure the dough.
4
Place a piece of baking paper on top of the dough and fill with baking beans. Place the pie plate in the freezer for 15 mins.
5
Remove pie from the freezer and bake for 25 mins. Allow the crust to cool completely.
