NOTES:

* A rich chocolate pie — I got this recipe from a 1983 calendar.
It’s tried and true and delicious. It’s also very simple to make. I
usually double the recipe, since one pie never seems to last long
enough. Maybe that makes it a double double chocolate pie. I’ve made
it using chocolate almond liqueur instead of creme de cacao. It came
out OK, and had a hint of a nutty flavor in the background.

: Difficulty: moderate.
: Time: 20 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooking and cooling.
: Precision: measure the ingredients.
