- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 3 cups milk
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon vanilla

- Start with the crust.
- Crumble the cookies into the workbowl of a food processor and process to crumbs.

- Press the crumbs evenly over the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
- Chill.
- Get busy making the filling.
- Sift the sugar, cornstarch, flour, salt, and cinnamon together into a bowl and set aside.
- Combine the chocolate chips and milk in a saucepan and set it over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- As soon as the chips are melted, pull the pan off the heat and pour half of the chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients.
- Mix well.
- Whisk the yolks and vanilla together in a bowl and pour into the remaining chocolate in the saucepan.
- Stir it around and then add the chocolate and dry ingredient mixture.
- Set the saucepan back over medium heat and whisk like crazy.
- Once the mixture starts to thicken, keep whisking and cooking for 2 minutes.
- Pour the chocolate filling into a bowl to cool for 10 minutes; then dump it into the pie shell and level the top.
- Chill for several hours in the fridge.
- Cut into wedges and serve slathered with whipped cream.
