Provided by TRISTESS00

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Custard and Cream Pie Recipes

Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

¾ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons self-rising flour
1 tablespoon cocoa powder, or more to taste
2 cups whole milk
2 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pre-baked pie shell
1 pinch white sugar, or to taste
1 dash vanilla extract, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix sugar, flour, and cocoa powder together in a bowl until well combined.
  • Mix milk, egg yolks, and vanilla extract together in a separate large bowl. Add flour mixture and blend custard until smooth.
  • Pour custard into a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring continually, until slightly boiling but not popping, about 5 minutes. Cook just until reasonably thickened, 3 to 5 minutes more, and remove from heat immediately. Stir hot custard to smooth out any lumps and pour into the pre-baked pie shell.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Beat egg whites, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl until peaks start to form. Spread the thick meringue mixture on top of the custard.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler just until the peaks start to turn light brown, 1 to 2 minutes, being very careful not to let the meringue burn.
  • Place the custard pie in the fridge or on Grandma's porch on a cool night until the custard congeals, about 2 hours.
