Chocolate Pie Bake a 9” pie shell. Meringue Layer: Beat together 2 egg whites (save yolks for chocolate layer), ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon until stiff but not dry. Continue beating and gradually add ½ cup sugar until very stiff. Spread meringue over the bottom and sides of baked pie crust. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 – 18 minutes until lightly browned. Cool. Dark Chocolate Layer: Melt 6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips. Blend in ¼ cup water and 2 egg yolks. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Spread a thin layer over the meringue layer. Whipped Cream Layer: Beat together 1 cup heavy whipping cream, ¼ cup sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon until thick. Spread ¾ - 1 cup mixture over the dark chocolate layer. Chocolate Whipped Cream Layer: Fold remaining chocolate mixture into remaining whipped cream. Spread on top of the whipped cream layer. Chill at least 4 hours before serving. |
