30Faça a receita da famosa torta de chocolate da Minny do filme Histórias Cruzadas, claro, que nessa receita não colocamos nenhum “ingrediente especial”.

This pie is crucial for the ending of the book and the movie, so, I suggest you watch the movie to find out what the special ingredient was.

See a sneak of the story:

Soon as I put that pie down on the countertop, Miss Hilly smiles, thinking it’s a peace offering, like that’s my way a showing her I’m real sorry bout what I said.
And then I watch her. I watch her eat it myself. Two big pieces. She stuff it in her mouth like she ain’t ever eaten nothing so good.
(…)
- What do you put in here, Minny, that makes it taste so good?
I say ‘That good vanilla from Mexico’ and then I go head.
I tell her what else I put in that pie for her.”

Interesting Fact

For the movie, the MInny's Chocolate pie was baked by Lee Ann Flemming, one of the best bakers in Greenwood. She made 53 pies for the shooting, and also 12 gluten-free pies, since the actress Bryce Dallas Howard, in the role of Hilly is gluten intolerant.
