Chocolate settles that score.
But this pie is not just some ordinary chocolate pie! It’s the gooey cousin; Chocolate Fudge!
This Old Fashioned Chocolate Fudge Pie recipe is a base that is often used in making other fudge pie recipes. Therefore, give it a try, and see how it goes. Then experiment and use it as a base for other chocolate fudge pies and desserts, like the caramel fudge pie for instance!
Preheat your oven to 375F-190C.
Prepare the tart shell following the instructions on the link above. Cover a pie plate with pastry and blind bake for 15 minutes.
Melt the chocolate and butter together on a double boiler. Remove the melted chocolate from heat.
Add the sugar, then a little bit of the beaten eggs, and whisk to combine and temper the eggs. Then Add remaining eggs and beat well to incorporate all ingredients.
Pour the chocolate filling into the half baked pie crust and bake for 25 minutes or until the centre is set and not wet.
Remove from heat, cool completely on the counter before refrigerating.
Serve cold.
