Chocolate Pie
Description
A rich, deeply chocolatey custard pie made from scratch — sugar, cocoa, flour, evaporated milk, vanilla, egg yolks, and butter heated in a saucepan until the butter melts and the filling comes together, then poured into an unbaked shell and baked until firm. Topped with whipped cream and served cold. A Southern chocolate pie the way it should be.

Note
Stir constantly while heating the filling to prevent scorching on the bottom of the pan. The filling only needs to heat until the butter melts — it finishes cooking in the oven.
