{"0":"For crust:","1":"Spray 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish with nonstick spray. Blend cookie crumbs, butter, and sugar in medium bowl. Press mixture evenly over bottom and up sides (not on rim) of prepared dish. Chill crust 30 minutes.","3":"Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F. Bake crust until set, about 10 minutes, then cool.","5":"For filling:","6":"Combine sugar, cocoa, and cornstarch in heavy medium saucepan; whisk to blend well. Gradually add 1\/4 cup milk, whisking until cornstarch dissolves. Whisk in remaining 2 1\/4 cups milk, then egg yolks and egg.

Cover chocolate layer with raspberries, pointed side up, pressing lightly into chocolate to adhere (some berries will be left over).
