3 squares Baker’s Unsweetened Chocolate
2½ cups milk
1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 baked 9-inch pie shell
2 egg whites
4 tablespoons sugar
Add chocolate to milk and heat in double boiler. When chocolate is
melted, beat with rotary egg beater until blended. Combine sugar, flour,
and salt; add gradually to chocolate mixture and cook until thickened,
stirring constantly; then continue cooking 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Pour small amount of mixture over egg yolks, stirring
vigorously; return to double boiler and cook 2 minutes longer. Remove
from boiling water; add butter and vanilla. Cool. Turn into pie shell.
Beat egg whites until foamy; add sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating
after each addition until sugar is blended. Then continue beating until
mixture will stand in peaks. Pile lightly on filling. Bake in moderate
oven (350°F.) 15 minutes.
