1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons instant espresso
2 cups half-and-half
4 large egg yolks
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate baking squares, chopped
2 tablespoons butter

3. Microwave chocolate in a small bowl at HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until melted, stirring at 30-second intervals. Whisk 2 Tbsp. butter and melted chocolate into sugar mixture; spoon into prepared crust. Place plastic wrap directly onto filling (to prevent a film from forming). Chill 4 to 24 hours. Top with Coffee Whipped Cream just before serving.
