Best Chocolate Buttermilk Pie With Whiskey And Almonds Recipes

MARGARET'S SOUTHERN CHOCOLATE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sift together the cocoa powder and the flour and pour them into a saucepan. Whisk the egg yolks and 1 1/3 cups sugar. Gradually add the evaporated milk, whisking constantly; slowly pour the milk mixture into the saucepan, whisking until combined.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a flat-bottomed wooden spoon or spatula, until the mixture begins to thicken and coats the back of the spoon, about 15 minutes. Remove the custard from the heat and stir in the butter until melted. Pour the filling into the baked pie crust.
• To make the meringue topping: Combine the egg whites and cream of tartar in a clean glass or metal bowl; beat with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add sugar, a tablespoon at a time, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks. Spread the meringue over the chocolate filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the tips of the meringue peaks are golden brown.

Adapted from Karen's Buttermilk Pie My older sister Karen always made the Buttermilk Pie for our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, and though I'm not sure where she got her recipe, I am sure that it was the best Buttermilk Pie that anyone in our family ever made. Yes, even better than mine. My beloved sister passed away in 1999 a few days after Christmas. The following year I decided to make her Buttermilk Pie in honor of her. I contacted family members and began a search for her recipe. To my dismay no one had it. My mother said my sister had written down the recipe for her, however, after searching she could not find it either. Each year I make a buttermilk pie from recipes I have found in books and online and none of them tasted the same. I am happy to say that while looking through old recipes of my mother's, after 13 years, I found my sister's handwritten recipe in time to bake it for Thanksgiving and my family got to enjoy a piece of Karen's Buttermilk Pie as we reminisced about her and holidays past.

CHOCOLATE BUTTERMILK PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Position a rack in the center of the oven.
• Place the chocolate chips in a double boiler and melt over low heat, stirring constantly.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt until well combined. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Add the sugar mixture and mix with an electric hand mixer or whisk vigorously. With a rubber spatula, stir the melted chocolate into the batter.
• Pour batter into the piecrust; you will have about 1 cup of left-over batter. Place pie in oven on middle rack. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 25 minutes, or until the pie is crisp on top and a knife inserted in the center comes out with just a bit of moist chocolate on it.
• Remove from oven and cool completely. Let stand at least 1 hour before serving. If not eating immediately, refrigerate pie. This pie can be served warm or chilled. Garnish with store-bought whipped cream just before serving.
