6 INGREDIENTS: Crust: 2 cups all-purpose flour 5 tablespoons yellow cornmeal 3 tablespoons granulated sugar Pinch of salt 2 sticks (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into small chunks 7-8 tablespoons cold water Filling: 16 ounces fresh blackberries 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice Finishes: 1 large egg 1 tablespoon water Granulated sugar, for sprinkling 3/4 cup heavy cream 3-4 large basil leaves, torn 2 tablespoons confectioners sugar DIRECTIONS: To make crust, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt in mixing bowl; mix well. Add butter and cut into dry ingredients with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cold water and stir just until dough comes together. Form dough into disc, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 2 hours. Preheat oven to 375 F. In medium bowl, combine blackberries, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine; set aside. Divide disc of chilled pie dough in half. Roll one portion of dough out on lightly floured work surface until large enough to line 9-inch pie plate. Transfer to pie plate. Fill bottom crust with blackberry mixture. Roll out remaining portion of pie dough on floured work surface and use to top pie as preferred (full top crust with vents, cut out shapes, or lattice top). Pinch edges of bottom and top crusts together, trim away excess and flute edges or crimp with tines of fork. In small bowl, combine egg and 1 tablespoon water; brush mixture over top of crust and sprinkle with sugar. Transfer pie to mid-upper rack of oven, with baking sheet or dish on the oven rack below to catch any dripping juices. Bake until pie is golden brown and juices are bubbling, about 40 minutes. (Rotate pie plate halfway through to ensure even browning.) If crust begins to brown too quickly, tent loosely with foil and continue baking as directed. Remove pie from oven and transfer to wire rack to cool. Let cool at least 1 hour before serving. To make whipped cream, combine heavy cream and basil leaves in small bowl. Muddle together with a muddler or handle of spatula. Pour cream mixture through fine mesh sieve to remove basil leaves. In medium bowl, whisk basil-infused cream and confectioners sugar just until stiff peaks form. Serve immediately with blackberry pie.

9 Chocolate Caramel INGREDIENTS: Crust: 1 1/2 cups flour 3/4 cup confectioners sugar 1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder Pinch of salt 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cubed 1 egg yolk, lightly beaten 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 2 tablespoons heavy cream Caramel Layers: 12 ounces soft caramel candies, unwrapped, divided 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons heavy cream, divided Chocolate Filling: 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped 3/4 cup heavy cream 1 tablespoon light corn syrup 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature DIRECTIONS: To make dough, combine flour, confectioners sugar, cocoa powder and salt in medium bowl; mix well. Add butter and cut into dry ingredients using pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse sand. Add egg yolk, vanilla and heavy cream; stir until dough comes together. Knead very briefly until dough has even consistency. Form into disc, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 400 F. On lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 1/4-inch thick. Cut dough rounds 6 inches in diameter. Line mini tart pans (pan should be 4 inches in diameter, at least 1 inch high) with dough, pressing into edges. Trim away excess dough. Line each crust with foil and fill with baking beads (dry rice or beans will also work). Place tart pans on baking sheet. Bake 18 minutes, or until mostly set. Reduce oven temperature to 375 F, remove foil and baking beads. Return tart shells to oven; bake 5 minutes more. Transfer tart pans to wire rack to cool completely. To make bottom caramel layer, combine 9 ounces caramel with 2 tablespoons heavy cream in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20 to 30 second intervals until melted and smooth; stirring frequently. Divide caramel mixture between tart shells, pouring an even layer to cover bottom of each shell. Refrigerate until caramel layer is set, about 30 minutes. Place chocolate in heatproof bowl. Bring 3/4 cup heavy cream to simmer in small saucepan. Pour hot cream and corn syrup over chocolate; let stand 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth; add butter and whisk until smooth. In small bowl, combine remaining 3 ounces caramel and 1 1/2 teaspoons heavy cream. Microwave in 10-second intervals until melted and smooth; set aside. Divide chocolate mixture between tartlet shells, pouring an even layer over caramel. Immediately top each with three small dots caramel. Use toothpick to marble in heart pattern. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours. Before serving, sprinkle with coarse sea salt.

10 Ingredients: 7 ounces vanilla wafers, finely crushed 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 6 ounces white chocolate 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup heavy cream 3 ounces raspberries, rinsed and dried Directions: Preheat oven to 350 F.

Place pie dough on lightly floured work surface and roll out into round about 1/4-inch thick. Transfer dough to 9-inch pie plate. Gently line plate with dough then trim away excess. Use excess dough to make decorative edge or use fingers to make fluted edge. Line dish with foil so dough is completely covered and fill plate with baking beads. (Dried beans or rice will also work.) Bake 25 minutes, rotating dish halfway through baking. Remove foil and beads. Return crust to oven; bake until lightly crisped, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to wire rack and cool completely. To make filling, in medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups coconut milk with espresso powder, sugar and salt. In small bowl, combine remaining 1 tablespoon coconut milk with cornstarch; set aside. Heat coconut milk and espresso mixture over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. When mixture is warm, stir in chocolate until melted and smooth. Add cornstarch mixture and bring to boil. Boil about 1 minute, stirring frequently, until mixture has thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour mixture into baked pie shell.

36 With Annalise from Completely Delicious

37 Annalise is one of the Go Bold With Butter baking experts and delights readers with new recipes for sweet and savory baked dishes each month. Through trial and error, she has perfected her recipe for Perfectly Flaky Pie Crust and method for creating a lattice-topped pie. Here, we ve collected her tips and recipes into two detailed tutorials for pie bakers at home. Butter or Shortening? I like to use only butter in my pie crust. Shortening is often added to help with the flakiness, but I feel that if you know how to properly prepare a pie crust, shortening isn t required. Using only butter has more flavor and can still get you the flakiness we all desire. Annalise, Completely Delicious

38 MAKES 2 9-INCH CRUSTS Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional) 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes 1/4 cup water, cold 1 3 Combine flour, salt and sugar (if using) in medium bowl. Add cold butter. Add cold water. Start by adding about half, mix it into dough, and then add more water as needed. You don t want to add too much water, otherwise, your crust will be too moist and turn out tough. 2 4 Using pastry blender, cut butter into dry ingredients until smallest bits of butter are size of small peas. It s okay if you have pieces that are bigger than that. Use spoon to stir dough. When it begins to clump together into a ball, dump it out onto clean surface.

39 5 Use your hands to knead dough until most of dry bits are incorporated. Do not over handle dough. Knead it only until it all comes together. A few loose bits are fine. 9 Keep your crust loose while you re rolling it. Rotate it often to make sure it s loose, and if ever it starts sticking, use a bench scraper to lift it while adding a bit more flour underneath. 6 Divide dough in half, shape into disks and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. 10 Transfer rolled pie crust to your pie dish by rolling it up onto rolling pin, and then rolling it out into pie dish. 7 When ready to assemble your pie, place one disk of dough on a floured surface. 11 Fill your pie crust as desired according to recipe and then roll out your second disk of dough. 8 With rolling pin, roll dough out into rough 12-inch circle. 12 Transfer second crust the same way you did the first and trim edges to 1 inch. Press two crusts together to seal and tuck them into pie dish. Crimp edges as desired. 13 All that s left is to cut slits into the top for vents, brush with egg wash and bake! For a standard fruit filling, bake for 1 hour at 400 F. Cool for a few hours before serving at room temperature.

40 1 Start with a basic double pie crust recipe. Roll out the first disk of dough and fill according to recipe instructions. Then, roll out your second disk of dough. 2 Use a plain or decorative pastry wheel cutter to slice dough into approximately 1-inch wide strips. You ll need 10 strips. 3 Place 5 dough strips on top of the pie, spaced evenly.

41 4 Pull back the second and fourth strips halfway and place another strip down the center of the pie, perpendicular to the first set. 5 Lay the folded strips back down. Now fold the first, third, and fifth strips back and place another perpendicular dough strip on top of the pie. 6 Unfold those strips, and again fold the second and fourth strips. Lay one more perpendicular strip. 7 Rotate the pie 180 degrees and repeat on the other side. 8 When you are all done with your lattice, trim any long strips so that they match up with the overhang of the bottom crust. Pinch them together to seal, fold under and crimp as desired. Bake as directed by the recipe and enjoy!
