    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a pie dish.

    2

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and powdered sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

    3

    Add the egg yolks and mix until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough and gently press it into the prepared pie dish.

    4

    Bake the crust for 15 minutes using pie weights or dried beans, then remove the weights and bake for another 5 minutes, or until lightly golden.

    5

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the chestnut puree, heavy cream, and vanilla sugar until smooth and creamy.

    6

    Pour the chestnut cream filling into the pre-baked pie crust.

    7

    Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the filling is set.

    8

    Let the pie cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar and slicing to serve.
