  • 1/4 cup corn starch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/2 cups water, cold
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 oz semisweet chocolate chips/chunks
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • whipping cream (optional)
1 pie

Directions

Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until almost melted (about 1 minute).

Stir until smooth then set aside.

In a medium saucepan, mix sugar, corn starch, and salt.

Add water, followed by eggs then chocolate.

Over low heat, stir constantly until thickened and smooth.
