How to Make Ms Winnie's Chocolate Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well.
  3. Add 3 egg yolks and 1 egg white to the dry mixture. Beat until combined.
  4. Stir in melted butter until well incorporated.
  5. Gradually whisk in the milk and water until smooth.
  6. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes).
  7. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
  8. Let the chocolate mixture cool completely to room temperature.
  9. Pour the cooled chocolate filling into the prepared pie crust.
  10. In a clean, dry bowl, beat the 2 egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  11. Gradually add 6-7 tablespoons of sugar, continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form. (Add more sugar if needed to reach desired consistency).
  12. Spread the meringue evenly over the chocolate filling, sealing the edges to the crust.
  13. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned.
  14. Let the pie cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
  15. Serve chilled and enjoy!
