Directions
Chocolate Cream Pie With Chocolate Meringue, This chocolate cream pie is rich and slightly tangy The melted chocolate folded into the meringue is a nice accent to the creamy and rich chocolate filling A nice summer time dessert (Prep time includes chill time), My family and I did not care for this pie As stated, there was a tart taste to the filling We prefer the traditional chocolate flavor Not really anything bad about the pie, just didn’t care for it , Okay, I made the pie I found the texture was perfect I got a firm filling by cooking it just a tiny bit longer The richness was off the scales It was a bit too rich for me In my former career I was the baker for a restaurant I will use the recipe again but cut back to 2 ounces of chocolate instead of 3
