Instructions

Fudgy Brownies

Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray a 9X13 inch pan with baking non-stick spray. Place parchment paper on the bottom and up 2 sides of the pan. Spray again and set aside.
Using a mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the sugar, eggs, and egg yolk together for 5 minutes straight. It will become very light and fluffy. While it is beating, mix the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
Add oil, melted butter, and vanilla into the egg mixture. Mix on low until combined. Take off the mixer.
Add in all of the dry ingredients. Use a rubber spatula and gently fold it in. Fold until all combined. Pour in chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and mini chocolates and mix until combined.
Pour brownie batter into the pan. Bake for 55 minutes until the edges are set and the middle is slightly underdone. Let it cool for 25 minutes. The brownies needs to be warm to make into the crust.
Spray a 9 inch spring form pan with baking non-stick spray. Place a 9 inch parchment circle on the bottom. Spray again.
Only the middle of the brownies are going to be used in the crust. Leave 1 inch of the crust and cut into the middle of the brownies. Grab a little bit of brownie at a time. Mold them to the bottom of the pan and ⅔ up the sides of the pan. Let it completely cool.

Nutella Pie Filling

Using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese on high for 1 minute. Add in sifted powdered sugar. Beat on low until starting to combine, then switch to high. Beat for 30 seconds until combined.
Add in Nutella and salt. Mix on high until combined. It will be thick. Freeze a metal bowl and whisk attachment for 10 minutes for the whipped cream.
Beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla in the cold bowl on medium-high until stiff peaks form.
Pour the whipped cream into the Nutella bowl. Use a rubber spatula and gently fold them together. It will take a few minutes, keep stirring until filling is silky.
Pour the filling into the spring form pan. Smooth it evenly. Cover with foil and chill in the fridge. Chill for 6 hours or overnight.

Cinnamon Oat Crumble

Make the crumble the day you make the pie so it can chill. Preheat oven to 300°F. Spray a baking sheet with baking non-stick spray.
In a small bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter with a fork. Chill in the fridge for 15 minutes. Pour the crumble on the baking sheet. Spread it out evenly.
Bake for a total of 15 minutes. Every 5 minutes stir the crumble.
Let it cool completely. Then, store in an air tight container in the fridge.

Nutella Whipped Cream

Freeze a metal bowl and whisk attachment for 10 minutes.
Pour heavy cream and powdered sugar into the cold bowl. Use a mixer and beat on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Pour the Nutella in. Use a rubber spatula and gently fold it in. Fold until it is smooth and silky.
Take the pie out of the spring form pan and take off the parchment paper. Spread the whipped cream on top. Use the back of the spoon to add texture. Sprinkle a heavy amount of cinnamon oat crumble on top of the whipped cream. Top with mini chocolate chips. Keep cold.

Notes

Brownies:

Flour- Make sure flour is spooned and leveled. Or use a scale. Compacted flour can make the brownies dry.

Make sure flour and cocoa powder are sifted.

Cinnamon Oat Crumble:

This will make a lot of crumble. I recommend serving extra crumble with each slice. It gives the pie a great texture.
