["Preheat oven to 170C fan bake, and put a baking tray on the bottom shelf to heat up. Grease a 20cm pie or tart tin with a removable base.", "First, make the pastry. In a food processor, combine all ingredients. It should just come together as a crumbly dough, so do not over mix. Press pastry into the greased pie/tart tin - you want a thin layer along the bottom and up the sides. You may have a little pastry left over, which you can wrap up and refrigerate.", "Next, make the filling. In the food processor, blend all of the ingredients (except the chocolate chips) until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
