Potato Chip Pie

- 1 (16-ounce) bag Ruffles potato chips
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1½ cups dark chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 24 crushed Ruffles potato chips, for decorating
- 1 tablespoon large flake salt, for decorating
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse potato chips until finely ground. Add flour and butter and mix to combine. Press into a pie plate and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until set and golden. Make the filling while the crust cools.
- Make the chocolate filling: In a small saucepan on medium-low heat, combine cream and chocolate until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and cook until mixture thickens. Add salt and remove from heat. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and cold water. Cook on medium-high heat without stirring until the sugar becomes golden, approximately 8 minutes. Remove from heat and carefully stir in heavy cream, being cautious of splattering sugar. Stir in butter and salt.
- Set chocolate chips in a medium-sized bowl, and heat the cream to a near boil. Pour cream over chocolate and whisk to combine. Add coconut oil, and set aside to cool.
- Pour chocolate filling into the baked chip crust, and bake for 20 to 22 minutes until set. Remove from the oven and cool for up to 2 hours. Top chocolate filling with approximately 1 cup of the salted caramel. Set in fridge to firm. Top caramel layer with chocolate ganache, and sprinkle with crushed chips and flake salt. Pie will keep up to 5 days refrigerated.
