A few weeks back my sister-in-law Alex and I were talking about pie recipes for the holidays. She said, “Oh, I have a good one! My grandma made it all the time when I was a kid and it’s one of my favorites!”. Alex dug through her recipe and sent me a picture of her Grandma’s chocolate pie recipe. I am honored to share it wit you guys!
Ingredients
- 1½ c granulated sugar (plus ¼ of a cup seperatly)
- 2 c milk
- ½ c cocoa
- 3 eggs
- 1 T cornstarch
- ¼ t salt
- 1 T vanilla
- unbaked pie crust
Instructions
- Beat 1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks in your mixer. (This is the one I have in my kitchen. I've had it for almost 12 years and it still runs like it's brand new!)
- Add in the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, salt and vanilla.
- Add milk and beat well.
- Move it to a sauce pan and cook over slow/low fire until it start to thicken. Whisk the entire time. You don't want it to scorch.
- Pour the batter into an unbaked pie crust and cook it at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes.
- While that is baking, let's make the meringue.
