If you’re looking for more ways to enjoy pumpkin pie, the addition of chocolate and toffee is certain to do the trick. Coming up with new pie variations is part of the fun of baking at this time of year. Personally, I enjoy traditional pumpkin pie but, have noted some complaints regarding texture issues and that it can be a little boring. Always wanting to honor age old tradition, I do serve classic pumpkin pie with a few updates. It’s a fabulous time to use your imagination to mix things up by keeping the flavors we all love, and adding in a little “sumthin sumthin” to breathe new life into it. This chocolate toffee chip pie does just that, and it uses some of our favorite sweet indulgences.

How to Make the BEST Chocolate Toffee Chip Pumpkin Pie Recipe

  • Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Chocolate Toffee Chip Pumpkin Pie: One 10 inch chocolate premade graham cracker crust (Larger than standard crust), instant vanilla pudding, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, pureed pumpkin, large eggs, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, salt, semi-sweet chocolate chips, toffee bits.
  • To make the Chocolate Ganache: Heavy cream, semi-sweet chocolate chips, ground cinnamon
  • Garnish: One 8 ounce frozen whipped topping thawed or fresh sweetened whipped cream.
  • This filling for this pumpkin pie comes together easily and using a prepared chocolate pie crust makes things even easier. Please note: This pie crust is larger than a classic graham cracker crust.
  • The decadent chocolate ganache requires only three ingredients to create. You can use milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips.
  • The custard filling makes enough for two pies. If you only need one pie, make mini pies in a cupcake pan with the remaining filling or bake it in ramekins like a custard for two desserts to serve.
  • I recommend allowing this pie to cool to room temperature then spread the top with the warm ganache, Slice and serve while the chocolate is soft and gooey.
  • Store this Chocolate Toffee Chip Pumpkin Pie chilled in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
