How to Make My Grandma's Chocolate Pies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt chocolate and butter together in a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, vanilla, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually whisk in the melted chocolate mixture until smooth.
- Stir in evaporated milk (or whole milk).
- Pour filling into prepared pie crusts.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly browned. A knife inserted near the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to fully set.
