How to Make Luby's Cafeteria's Chocolate Icebox Pie
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups milk, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ¼ cup cornstarch and ¼ cup cold water until smooth and completely dissolved.
- Stir in ½ cup milk until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the boiling milk mixture in the saucepan. Continue whisking constantly.
- Cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and becomes smooth and glossy.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup mini marshmallows until melted and completely incorporated.
- Pour the chocolate filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
- Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the filling to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to fully chill and set.
- Remove the plastic wrap before serving. Top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings or curls.
