Chocolate Meringue Pie (The Best Ever) image

We've tried a bunch of chocolate pie recipes from here, but none can hold a candle to this one that I grew up with from the Foods a la Louisiane book (from the Louisiana Women's Farm Bureau). It's easy, not too sweet and inexpensive. Also, using a high quality vanilla makes a huge difference.

I love the way the meringue browns on top of the pie. It makes it look so professional.

Overall, I thought this pie was pretty good. It's not my favorite chocolate pie, but I would definitely make it again for a special occasion.

This pie was a little too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter, airier meringue.

I had some trouble getting the meringue to brown on top, but the pie still tasted great. I think I'll try using a kitchen torch next time.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect for someone with a sweet tooth.

I'm not a huge fan of meringue, but I really enjoyed this pie. The chocolate filling was so rich and creamy that it balanced out the sweetness of the meringue.
