Ernie'S Fudge Pie - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 uncooked 9-inch pie shell
1/2 cup butter
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate (the higher quality of chocolate you have the better the pie!)
3 eggs
3 tablespoons light corn syrup or 3 tablespoons white corn syrup
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For White and Dark Chocolate drizzle
1 ounce white baking bar
2 -3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (1/4 - 1/3 cup)
Preparation
-
Melt butter and chocolate together on low heat or in double boiler.
Meanwhile, put eggs in mixing bowl and beat until light and pale in color.
Beat remaining ingredients into eggs, than add slightly cooled chocolate mixture.
Mix thoroughly and pour into pie shell.
Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until top appears dry and filling is set but still somewhat soft inside.
Do not over bake; pie should shake like custard so it will not be too stiff when cool. It really shouldn't take any longer than 30 minutes.
For white chocolate drizzle, place baking square in small resealable plastic bag; seal bag.
Heat in microwave oven at MEDIUM (50% power) 1 minute.
Turn bag over; heat at MEDIUM 1 to 2 minutes or until melted. (Depending on the chocolate you use, sometimes you may need to add a little shortening for a smoother glaze.).
Knead bag until white chocolate is smooth.
Cut off very tiny corner of bag; pipe or drizzle white chocolate onto pie.

This is great served plain, or with a topping of vanilla ice cream.
