Old-Fashioned Chocolate Pie with Golden Meringue 不

Ingredients:

For the Pie:

1 pre-baked pie crust

1/4 cup butter

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup flour

1/2 cup cocoa powder

2 cups milk

3 egg yolks

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


For the Meringue:

3 egg whites

1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

1/2 cup sugar

Instructions:

Prepare the Pie Crust: Bake your pie crust according to package instructions or your recipe, then set it aside to cool.

Make the Chocolate Filling: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, flour, and milk. Add in the egg yolks and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a smooth, creamy filling. Once thickened, pour the filling into the cooled pie crust.

Prepare the Meringue: In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.

Bake the Meringue: Spread the meringue over the chocolate filling, ensuring it reaches the edges of the crust. Bake at 350F 175C for 10-15 minutes, until the meringue is golden brown.

Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Enjoy this decadent chocolate pie with a beautifully golden meringue! If you try it, Id love to hear how it turned out!
