100 g butter or margarine
15 ml oil
1 egg yolk
45 ml cold water

125 g Dansukker Light Muscovado Sugar

Instructions
Work together the pastry ingredients. This can be done with a food processor. Press the pastry into a springform pan about 28 in diameter. Prick with a fork. Bake at the centre of the oven at 250 °C for 10 minutes. Allow the pie crust to cool in the tin. Combine all the ingredients for the filling except the butter/margarine and nuts in a saucepan. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter/margarine. Add the nuts. Pour the filling into the pastry case. Refrigerate for 3 hours, until set. Remove the rim of the pan. Top the pie with whipped cream and dust with chocolate flavoured icing sugar.
