    For The Pie Filling:

    3/4 c. whipping cream
    2 tbsp. powdered sugar

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly spoon flour into measuring
    cup; level off. In medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar,
    cocoa, and salt. Using pastry blender or fork, cut in
    shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle
    flour mixture with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, while tossing
    and mixing lightly with fork. Add water until dough is just
    moist enough to hold together. Shape dough into ball. Flatten
    ball; smooth edges. On lightly floured surface, roll ball
    lightly from center to edge into circle 1 1/2 inches larger
    than inverted 9 inch pie pan. Fold dough in half; place in pie
    pan. Unfold; fit evenly in pan. Do not stretch. Fold edge
    under to form standing rim; flute. Prick bottom and sides of
    crust generously with fork. Bake at 450 degrees for 8 to 11
    minutes or until crust appears dry and flaky. Cool completely.
    In medium saucepan, combine sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch. Add
    milk gradually, stirring over medium heat until mixture boils;
    boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add baking bar and vanilla,
    stir until baking bar is melted and mixture is smooth. Pour
    into large bowl; cover top with plastic wrap. Cool to room
    temperature. In small bowl, beat whipping cream with powdered
    sugar until soft peaks form. Beat cooled baking bar mixture
    at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Fold
    whipped cream into mixture. Spoon evenly into cooled crust.
    Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight until firm. In small saucepan
    over medium heat, heat raspberries and 1 tablespoon cornstarch
    to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil 1 minute, stirring
    constantly. Cool. Serve pie with raspberry sauce.
