Amish Twist Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup hot water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 (9 inch) unbaked pie crusts
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a hot temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Combine sugar, cocoa powder, and hot water in a bowl, then use an electric mixer to blend the ingredients together on medium speed until sugar is fully incorporated and smooth, taking around 3 minutes to achieve this.
3
Pour the resulting mixture into pre-baked pie shells.
4
Separately, mix flour and baking powder in a separate bowl.
5
Using an electric mixer again, combine sugar with butter until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract, followed by eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition.
6
Slowly add half of the milk to the sugar mixture, then gradually blend in half of the flour until the batter is moistened.
7
Mix in the remaining milk and flour to create a smooth, consistent batter.
8
Carefully spread this batter evenly over the chocolate mixture, ensuring that not a single speck of chocolate remains on top.
9
Bake the cake in your preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into its center comes out clean, taking approximately 30 minutes to achieve this.
10
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for a minimum of 1 hour before serving.
