Number Of Ingredients 11

9 inch pie shell
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 squares unsweetened chocolate
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups milk
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 egg whites at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, cornstarch, chocolate and salt; mix well. Gradually stir in milk, mixing until smooth. Over medium heat, bring to boil, stirring. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir half of hot mixture into egg yolks, mixing well; return to pan. Bring back to boiling and boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Pour immediately into pie shell. Preheat oven to 375F. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form when beater is raised. Gradually beat in sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form when beater is raised. Spread meringue over warm filling, sealing to edge of crust. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until meringue is golden.
