Easy No-Bake Chocolate Cream Pie Recipe

Ingredients

• 0.75 cup white sugar, divided
• 0.33 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups milk
• 2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
• 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked

Instructions

1. Gather all the necessary ingredients for your chocolate cream pie.
2. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of sugar, flour, milk, and chopped chocolate. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture starts to bubble. Reduce heat to low; simmer and continue stirring for an additional 2 minutes.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat. In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar into the egg yolks until well combined.
4. Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Return the filling mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat for another 90 seconds, stirring continuously. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract.
5. Pour the chocolate cream filling into the pre-baked pie shell. Chill in the refrigerator until fully set, approximately 4 hours.
6. Before serving, generously top the chocolate cream pie with whipped cream and a sprinkle of grated chocolate. Enjoy this delicious and easy dessert!
