Cinnamon Tortilla Chip Pie Crust

I like to use this crust for a Mexican chocolate cream pie, which is basically any chocolate pie filling flavored with cinnamon and optionally (to intensify the chocolate flavor) a bit of espresso or instant espresso granules, and (if you want it spicy) a bit of ground red pepper.

Ingredients

- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons of egg white
- 2 tablespoons of butter, melted
- Non stick cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Mix the crushed tortilla chips with the sugar and (if you are using it) the cinnamon. Mix in the egg white and butter.

Spray a 9 inch pie tin with non stick cooking spray and press the crust mixture on the bottom and up the sides o the pan.

Bake at 375 degrees for 9 minutes or until lightly toasted.

Allow the pie crust to cool completely before filling.
