Tastes just like a chocolate wafer pie crust...but only has 5 ingredients as opposed to about 50! This is extremely easy and I promise you won't do more work than if you used chocolate cookies.

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar

  • cup all-purpose flour

  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  2. Whisk sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and salt together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Pour melted butter into the mixture and stir to incorporate. Press dough into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan.

Recipe Tip

Use two springform pans to make cheesecake crusts (bake for 13 minutes) or two 12-cup muffin tins to make 24 cupcake crusts (bake for 10 minutes).
