No-Bake Chocolate Cream Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked
  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Combine sugar, flour, cornstarch, and salt in a medium-sized saucepan. Use a whisk to blend the ingredients together seamlessly.
2
In a separate, medium-sized bowl, gently mix milk and egg yolks until they are fully incorporated and smooth.
3
Gradually incorporate the milk mixture into the sugar mixture, blending until it forms a cohesive whole.
4
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly as the mixture begins to thicken and reach a full boil.
5
Continue boiling and stirring for exactly one minute, taking care to maintain the desired consistency.
6
Remove the saucepan from the heat source and stir in chocolate, butter, and vanilla extract until they have fully melted.
7
Pour the filling into a pre-prepared pie shell. Cover the top of the filling with plastic wrap to prevent it from forming a skin and refrigerate for several hours.
8
Finally, top the pie with meringue or whipped cream and add chocolate curls if desired.
