Instructions

Prepare your pastry crust in a pie plate and chill in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to ensure even baking.
In a small bowl, thoroughly combine white sugar, brown sugar, flour, cocoa powder, cornmeal, and salt.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, whiskey, and vanilla paste until well combined. Gradually add the sugar mixture and blend until smooth. Gently fold in the almonds by hand until evenly distributed. Pour the luscious mixture into the chilled pastry crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the crust turns a beautiful golden brown and the center is perfectly set. Transfer the pie to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely to room temperature before slicing and serving.
