Texas Chocolate Pie (Printable)

I wanted to share my husband's family recipe for Texas Chocolate Pie, and I also wanted to try out Google Documents for making printable documents.

This is the best of both worlds!

I will paste the recipe below, but please try the printable version too to see if it works:

Texas Chocolate Pie

Yay! Printable! Get this, it's..... printable!!

Yes, possibly a bit excited.

And now, the non-printable version for viewing. And while I may be a tad over-excited about finally having printables, I should also mention that this is one of the best pies ever. People will fight to the death over it before your eyes. While that might be a bit messy (and socially embarrassing), it's probably worth it.

 

Texas Chocolate Pie

 

 

6 Tbsp. cornstarch

6 Tbsp. cocoa powder
1 ½ cups sugar

⅛ tsp. salt

¼ cup water

2 egg yolks

1 ¾ cups milk

½ cup butter

1 tsp. vanilla

1 baked pie shell

 

Mix cornstarch, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt together in a medium pan. Add water

and egg yolks to make a paste.

 

Scald milk. Add slowly to above.

 

Cook until boiling, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla until combined. (You can use a cold water bath  after the butter has melted in to cool more quickly when you’re in a hurry.)

 

Pour into pie shell. Let cool. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
