Gone to Heaven Chocolate Pie

[cruelshoes]

From the Hershey's Website. So easy and so good. I used soy milk and Tropical Source chocolate chips to make it DF. It was so rich and wonderful.



Ingredients:
9-inch baked pie shell (1/2 recipe perfect pie crust or cornflake almond pie crust)
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 egg yolks
3 cups milk (I used soy milk)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened (I used margarine)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups Chocolate Chips, divided (I used Tropical Source because they are DF)
Sweetened whipped cream or whipped topping(optional - I omitted)

Directions:
1. Prepare pie shell according to directions; cool. Stir together sugar, cornstarch and salt in 2 quart saucepan. Combine egg yolks and milk in container with pouring spout (I used my blender). Gradually blend milk mixture into sugar mixture.

2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla. Add 1-3/4 cups chocolate chips; stir until chips are melted and mixture is well blended. Pour into prepared pie shell; press plastic wrap onto filling. Cool. Refrigerate several hours or until chilled and firm. Garnish with whipped cream and remaining chocolate chips, if desired. 6 to 8 servings.
