Memaws Chocolate Pies

This has been made by both sides of my family since I can remember...the filling is so good. You will need two of my Meringue recipes for the tops of these pies (makes 2), so be sure to have that ready! Also, two store bought, or two homemade baked pie crusts.




Ingredients:

2 Cups of sugar

6 Tablespoons of cocoa

8 tablespoons of flour

6 egg yolks ( After separating save whites for your meringue recipe)

1 stick of butter

3 cups of whole milk

1 teaspoon of vanilla



Directions:

1. Bake pie crusts till lightly golden brown, keep oven on 350 so that you can cook your meringue at the end.

2. In a large saucepan (I prefer stainless steel for this) combine all ingredients (not the egg whites) and stir and cook over medium heat till mixture boils and becomes thick.

3. Poor hot mixture in to baked pie shells.

4. Cover with meringue, and bake another 15 minutes or until meringue is golden on top.
