Chocolate Mousse Pie

Preheat oven to 350º

CRUST 

~ 1 cup of Arnel's Originals All Purpose Flour and Pie Crust Mix
~ 1/4 cup softened butter (salted,) or healthy margarine, or coconut oil ( add 1/8 teaspoon sea salt)
~ 1/2 of a large egg, slightly beaten
~ 1 - 2 Table spoons of water

        • Combine with a fork so the mixture is crumbly
        • Add half an egg to the crumbly mixture. It should now hold together. If it doesn't, add 1 Tablespoon water.

• Gather the dough and place it in your pie pan.
• With waxed paper on top of the dough, press into your pie pan, spreading the dough evenly on the bottom and sides and fluting the edges to make it look appealing. (As an alternative, you could roll the dough between two pieces of waxed paper, peel one piece off, carefully flip the crust into the pie tin, peel off the second piece and press the dough into the pan. Don't be concerned that the pie crust has broken into pieces. It is very forgiving in the raw state and will connect well with its parts. )

• Pierce the bottom of the crust in a few places with a fork. (This prevents air from bubbling up under the crust and making little hills.)

• Bake empty crust for 15 minutes at 350º.
• Remove from oven and cool.
