So I found this recipe online and it looked DIVINE so I decided to try it. I was feeling a bit domestic when I got home from church. Here's the recipe:
Granny's Cocoa Cream Pie
1/2 C. cocoa
1/4 C. cornstarch
3 egg yolks
1 1/2 C. sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 C. milk
1 tsp vanilla
Mix cocoa, cornstarch, beaten egg yolks; sugar and salt, ten add milk gradually, while stirring in a pot over med-high heat. Cook until thick, beating it smooth. Cream pies take some time to thicken so stir...and stir (10-15 min). Using a heavy bottom pan really helps. Keep stirring until it's super thick. Pour into a pre-baked pie shell. Put in the fidge to chill, add whipped topping....YUM!
Here's the finished product:
I also found a delicious pie crust recipe. Here it is:
All Butter Crust for Sweet and Savory Pies
2 1/2 C. Flour
1 C. unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1. tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
6 to 8 Tb. ice water
*This crust recipe makes 2 crusts so I just froze the other one.
You passed me up on the domestic chart a long time ago. Way to go Miss Maddle-Faddle!
