    Yum! I exchanged hazelnuts for 1/2 cup of cashews and 1/2 of almonds. I also added sliced dried fig and ripe bananas. It was more cake than brownie which made me sad. As for the whipped topping, I added some gelatin to help it last a few days in the fridge. It was an easy cake to make with simple ingredients.

    YUM. I devoured this and felt totally guilty afterwards. This was basically a brownie pie. Even the look of it was just like a brownie - with the cracked top part.

    This was still delicious though. Especially if you love brownies. And who doesn't love brownies, right?

    I thought it was really simple to put together. Just throw everything into the food processor and pour it into the pie dish.

    I took the great suggestion to use walnuts instead of hazelnuts which worked out perfectly!

    Sinfully good. I used walnuts instead of hazelnuts. I usually don't like walnuts but it works better when baking with chocolate. (I'm a pecan lover.

    Nice pie! It's more like a brownie... I don't have a food processor, so I put the chocolate chips & hazelnuts in a ziplock bag & crushed them with a rolling pin. I liked the chunks of hazelnuts & gooey chocolate center. The cinnamon cream goes perfectly with the pie.

    This is a wonderful pie and simple to make. What is particularly nice is the whip cream. It adds a touch of whimsy. My daughter -- a picky eater -- even requested this as her birthday cake. It's moist and delicious.

    It was very easy to make, I only used 1/2 cup of sugar and it tasted just right. Not to sweet not to bland. I used a blender to mix all the things together and I used 2 whole eggs and 2 egg whites. I am going to make this again for xmas! Im topping it off with vanilla chocolate chip ice cream, I still have walnuts and chocolate chips left over so im going to decorate that over the pie.

    I just was wondering if anyone else had the same problem I did. When i made this I followed the instructions to a t and watched the video. In the video the batter was very think but mine was very thin. I didnt taste it yet as it is still in the oven. So if anyone can help tell me why that would be great. Thanks
