Old Fashioned Chocolate Pie


This recipe needed no tweaking, whatsoever. It is as equally delicious as it is simple. And want to hear a secret? I didn't even think I was going to like it. Boy was I WRONG! Amazing!!

½ c. cocoa
¼ cup cornstarch
3 egg yolks
1 ½ c. sugar
¼ tsp. salt
2 c. milk
1 tsp. vanilla


Directions: Bake the pie shell by itself according to package directions until brown. Mix cocoa, cornstarch, beaten egg yolks; sugar, salt and vanilla, then add milk gradually while stirring in a pot over med-high heat. Cook until thick, beating it smooth. Pour into a pre-baked pie shell. Put in the fridge to chill for 2 hours.

*Note: It may take a few minutes for the mixture to thicken in the saucepan. Be patient, it will happen. Also, make sure your pie shell is browned in the oven before putting the chocolate mixture in it to chill. Obviously from my picture, mine cooked have cooked a little longer. OOPS!
