Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch unbaked deep-dish pie shell
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 9-inch deep dish pie plate with the pie shell and set aside. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup of sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly stir in the milk and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly. Once the mixture comes to a simmer, reduce heat to low and let cook for 10 minutes, stirring often. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips until melted.

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup of the hot chocolate mixture until blended. Pour the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan and return to medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell and spread evenly.

To make the meringue topping, place the egg whites and cream of tartar into the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the 1/4 cup of sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Spread the meringue over the top of the filling and make sure it seals to the edges of the pie crust. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 12 minutes or until the meringue is lightly browned.
