Top this yummy chocolate pie with whipped cream or whipped topping.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • baked pie crust or purchased crumb crust, 9-inch

Preparation:

Mix cocoa and flour in top of a double boiler over hot water and whisk in about half of the 1 cup of water, just enough to make a smooth paste.

Top with whipped cream or whipped topping, or use the egg whites to make a meringue. Chill thoroughly

I love, love LOVE this recipe! It's easy enough to make and it looks and tastes amazing! I think this recipe is perfect just the way it is but I have found that you can make almost any flavour of pie by replacing the cocoa powder with something else (like lemon juice or almond extract)
