Yield 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

Pastry for 1-crust 9-inch pie
4 oz German's sweet chocolate
1/4 c butter
1 15-oz can evaporated milk
1 1/2 c sugar
3 T cornstarch
1/8 t salt
2 lg eggs, lightly beaten
1 t vanilla extract
1 1/3 c sweetened, flaked coconut
1/2 c chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 375F. Roll out the pastry and line a 9-inch pie pan; set aside. 2. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate and butter, stirring until combined. Remove from the heat and stir in the milk; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla and mix thoroughly, then gradually blend in the chocolate mixture. Pour into the unbaked pie shell. In a small bowl, combine the coconut and pecans, then sprinkle them evenly over the filling. Bake for 45 minutes, until the edges of the crust are golden brown and the filling is partly set. Remove from the oven and cool at least 4 hours before cutting. The filling will firm up as it cools.
