Directions
Dad’s Chocolate Cream Pie and Variations, This is by far one of the best chocolate pies – I have searched and the difference is the unsweetened chocolate vs cocoa Also, it can be changed to butterscotch, caramel, coconut (variations at end of directions), Very good! I made the coconut version Only to discover that i am out of the coconut called for so, i added back the other 1/3c sugar & added my natural dessicated, unsweetened coconut to the scalded milk so it would have more time to rehydrate I think even with the unsweetened coconut, 2/3c sugar would be enough Made for Variety is the Spice of Life event 5/14
