    German Chocolate Pie


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    4 ounces German chocolate
    1/4 cup butter
    1 and 1/2 cup sugar
    3 tablespoons cornstarch
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 and 1/2 cup evaporated milk
    1 unbaked 10-inch pie crust

    Topping:
    1 and 1/3 cup shredded coconut
    1/2 cup chopped pecans

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In microwave, melt chocolate and butter on a low setting in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Stir several times during melting process to prevent burning. When chocolate is melted, stir in sugar, salt, vanilla, cornstarch and eggs until well blended. Stir in evaporated milk until smooth. Pour into pie shell. Mix coconut and pecans together. Sprinkle them evenly over the chocolate mixture. Use a knife to cut through the coconut into the chocolate mixture in several places. Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until center is set.

    Tip: The pie center puffs slightly and the top begins to crack when it is done. If the crust becomes too brown, place a piece of foil over the top of the entire pie for the final 15 minutes of baking. A dollup of whipped cream can be added if desired.
