Dark Chocolate Strawberry Pie

• 2 whole Uncooked Pie Crusts
• 1/4 cups Dark Chocolate Chips
• 5 cups Strawberries, Rinsed, Hulled And Chopped
• 1/2 cups Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cups White Sugar (Divided Use, Reserve 1/4 Cup For Sprinkling At The End)
• 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
• 3 Tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 Tablespoons Butter

1. Roll out one batch of pie dough to fit into a greased pie pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the bottom of the pie shell.
2. You have two options for the strawberries.
3. Option one: Combine berries, brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice and cornstarch in a bowl. Stir together and pour into the pie shell.
4. Option two (the option I chose): At least an hour before or up to the day before you want to make the pie, combine berries, brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and corn starch in a bowl. Stir together and place in the refrigerator to sit. When it is time to make the pie, drain out the additional liquid. Pour strawberries into the pie shell.
5. Preheat oven to 350 F.
6. Once you have your filling in the bottom crust, roll out the second pie crust and cut it into strips. Form a lattice topping on top of the strawberries using the pie dough strips.
7. Cut the 2 tablespoons of butter into tiny pieces and dot them in between the openings of the lattice work. Sprinkle the pie with the remaining sugar. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
8. Serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Or if you are like me, both.
