Gluten-free Caramelized White Chocolate Chess Pie

And to finish using the caramelized white chocolate, I replicated the recipe for caramelized white chocolate chess pie in the Bake from Scratch issue of November/December 2018. I always have a pie crust available in the freezer, so it was an easy dessert to bake – please refer to my pie crust recipe. Here is my gluten-free version.

ENJOY!

  • Top the dough with a piece of parchment paper, letting the ends extend over the edges of the pan. Add pie weights.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In the top of a double boiler combine butter and caramelized white chocolate. Melt over simmering water, stirring frequently,
  • Remove from the heat, add granulated sugar, eggs, cornmeal, vanilla and salt, whisking until smooth. Pour filling into the prepared crust.
  • Bake until the center is set and is no longer jiggly, about 40 minutes. Let cool for 2 hours. To make vertical stripe pattern lay 1 inch strips of parchment paper over the pie. Dust with confectioners’ sugar, and carefully remove the parchment.
