Here’s how to make it:

Crust:

1. Cream together butter, sugar, and salt.
2. Mix flour with cocoa powder and Pumpkin Spice, then add it, along with the egg, to the butter-sugar mixture. Knead until you have a smooth dough.
3. Shape the dough into a flat rectangle, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
4. Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) top/bottom heat. Grease the tart pan.
5. Roll out the crust on a lightly floured surface to about 4mm thick and cut out a circle 3cm larger than your tart pan.
6. Place the dough in the tart pan, pressing it firmly into the base and up the sides. Trim the edges with a knife if necessary. Chill until ready to use.

Pumpkin Pie Filling:

1. Mix pumpkin puree, salt, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
2. Stir in the eggs. Add sour cream and crème fraiche.
3. Then, mix in Pumpkin Spice and cornstarch.
4. Spread Schogetten Pumpkin Spice on the tart base and pour the pumpkin mixture over it.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes. The pumpkin filling should still be slightly wobbly.
6. Let the Pumpkin Pie cool and decorate before serving.
7. Chop the dark chocolate and melt it over hot water.
8. Stir in the butter and transfer it into a piping bag. Cut a small tip and draw several circles on the Pumpkin Pie.
9. Decorate with Schogetten, star anise, and hazelnut brittle. Enjoy!
