Recipe For Chocolate Cream Pie

My husband says his mother made the most wonderful chocolate cream pie from scratch. All he remembers is that she used to shave the chocolate into a cooking pan. But he says that the chocolate pudding part was so thick, that a fork would stand up in it.

Remove from heat and add the vanilla and the butter. Remove from burner and let cool while you prepare the meringue.

Mix the 3 egg whites with a dash of cream of tarter along with 2 Tablespoons sugar. Whip the egg whites till stiff and soft peaks form. Add pudding to cooled pie shell and top with meringue making sure the meringue touches the sides of the pie crust to prevent shrinking. Broil till lightly golden brown.
