1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/2 c. cold water
1/2 c. sugar
2 Tbsp. corn starch
1/4 tsp. salt
2 c. commercial eggnog
1 1/2 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 baked 9-inch pastry shell
1 tsp rum extract
2 c. whipping cream, divided

Recipe
Soften gelatin in cold water; set aside. Combine sugar, corn starch, and salt in a 1-quart saucepan; gradually stir in eggnog. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened; cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and add gelatin mixture; stir until dissolved.
Divide filling in half; set one half aside to cool. Add melted chocolate and vanilla to other half of filling; stir well and pour into pastry shell. Chill until filling is set.
Add rum extract to remaining filling. Beat 1 c. whipping cream until soft peaks form, and fold into filling mixture. Spoon over chocolate layer and chill.
Beat remaining whipping cream until foamy; gradually add powdered sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Spread over pie; garnish with chocolate curls, if desired.
Yield: one 9-inch pie
