This is a delicious chocolate pie that I remember my mother making from the time I could remember such things. I'm sure she made up the recipe herself.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup(s) granulated sugar
1 pinch(es) salt
2 cup(s) milk
7 tablespoon(s) cocoa, unsweetened
5 tablespoon(s) sifted all-purpose flour
3 - egg yolks
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
1 tablespoon(s) butter
1 - baked pie crust

Steps:

  • Cook sugar, salt, milk, cocoa, flour, and egg yolks in double boiler until thick.
  • Add vanilla and butter. Pour into baked pie crust.
  • Most of the time, Mother made a meringue from the egg whites and browned the pie in the oven. Later in life, she used either real whipped cream or Cool Whip instead, and I liked that just as much. Easier!
