3. 3

   Mix all the crust ingredients together. Smush the mixture into a 13 in pie pan or 12ish mini pie pans. Put empty crust and a cookie sheet then into the oven and blind bake for 10 minutes for the big un and 5 minutes for the wee ones. Now go and stir that filling together!

   For the filling:

5. 5

   Microwave the chips and corn syrup for 45 seconds. Then stir for a sec and put it back in the micro for 30 seconds. Then stir and put back in the micro for 15 seconds. Repeat until the chocolate is melted and smooth (Fun fact: It's a thick chocolate syrup if you stop here. You can put it on ice cream, bananas, hamburgers, whatever). Mix the rest of the ingredients with an electric mixer on medium.", "Then while the mixer is going, try to pour the chocolate into the filling (if you don't have 8 hands, just stop the thing and put the chocolate in 1/4 at a time mix it in, then put the next 1/4). Beat on medium high for a minute.", "The pie crust should be done by now so pull the whole rack halfway out of the oven, cookie sheet and all, and pour the filling into the pie crust directly. Stick the rack back in and bake for 35-45 minutes. They are finished when the are just the tiniest bit wiggly in the center and a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. I'd start checking the minis around 30 minutes (you want them to be the slightest bit under done because they will finish cooking with the residual heat left in the pie). Once they are finished, let cool for 1 hour."]
