I also wanted to share my Mom's chocolate pie recipe that has been handed down
for many generations in our family. This will make two pies (one to take and one
to keep!)
Granny Law's Chocolate Pie
3 egg yolks (save whites for topping)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup sugar (for topping)
4 level tablespoons of cocoa
6 level tablespoons of flour
3 tablespoons of butter
1 can of evaporated milk or 1 quart of regular milk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
2 baked pie crusts
Beat egg yolks well. Add 1 cup of sugar, cocoa, flour. Mix very good! Add milk -
mix again. Add butter and cook over medium heat - stirring constantly until it
is thick (like pudding). Remove from heat and add vanilla. Pour into cooked pie
crusts.
Topping:
3 egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Beat until stiff and add to pies - bake in over at 425 degrees until golden.
Keep in refrigerator - covered. (if it last that long).
I will say that this pie recipe is my personal favorite of my Mom's cooking and
is delicious. I hope everyone that is a Chocoholic will try it!
