How to Make Irresistible Chocolate Pie
- Separate 2 large eggs and beat the egg yolks well in a medium saucepan.
- Add 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup cornstarch to the egg yolks. Whisk until well combined.
- Whisk in 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk and 1/2 cup water until smooth.
- Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens significantly (about 4-5 minutes). Alternatively, microwave on high for 4-5 minutes, whisking every minute. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's power.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter until melted and smooth.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into your prepared 9-inch baked pie crust.
- Let the pie cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow it to set.
- Top with whipped cream or meringue before serving (optional).
