12 ounces | Semi-sweet chocolate chips |
3 tablespoons | Milk |
2 tablespoons | Sugar |
4 \N | Eggs; separated |
1 \N | Baked pie shell |
Combine first three ingredients in a saucepan and heat over low flame until melted and smooth. Be careful not to scorch the chocolate. Allow to cool slightly and beat in the four egg yolks, one at a time.* Allow to cool to room temperature. Beat 4 egg white until stiff and fold into chocolate mixture. Put in baked pie shell and refrigerate. Serves 8.
NOTES : *This recipe pre-dates the salmonella scare, and the egg yolks are not cooked. If salmonella contamination is a concern in your area then heat the chocolate and egg mixture to a temperature of 160F (71C) for at least three minutes. Be careful not to curdle the eggs.
