Equipment

  • 1 Pie dish
  • 1 Rolling Pin
  • 1 Medium saucepan
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 pastry brush
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package pie crust (2 crusts)
  • 2 cup sweet cherries pitted and halved
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Roll out one pie crust and fit it into the pie dish.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cherries, chocolate chips, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the cherry mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  • Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling, sealing the edges.
  • Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  • Brush the top crust with beaten egg.
  • Place the pie in the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
  • While the pie bakes, whisk together pumpkin spice, powdered sugar, and milk in a saucepan over low heat until smooth for the glaze.
  • Once the pie is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Drizzle the pumpkin spice glaze over the pie before serving.

Notes

For extra tips, ensure the pie crust edges are well-sealed to prevent any filling leakage. If using frozen cherries, thaw and drain them before mixing with other ingredients to avoid excess moisture in the pie. Adjust the sugar to taste depending on the sweetness of your cherries.
