White Chocolate Macadamia Cookie Crusted Chocolate Pie Recipe

Method

Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a 9-inch pie dish with non-stick spray. Break the cookies into small pieces and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 4-6 minutes and golden brown. Let cool. Place the cooled cookies into a high speed blender and blend until the fine crumbles form. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add in the melted butter and use a fork to combine. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pie dish. Bake the pie crust for 5-7 minutes and golden. Let cool. Meanwhile, in a small pot, whisk together the coconut cream and gelatin. Turn on medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and whisk in the protein powder. Place the chocolate chips into a heat proof bowl and pour the boiling mixture over the chocolate. Let sit for 5 minutes before stirring smooth. Mix in the vanilla and salt. Pour the chocolate into the crust and chill for 2 hours. Top with crushed macadamia nuts and toasted coconut. Slice into 12 even pieces and serve.
