Grum's Chocolate Pie

My husband's favorite dessert is his mom's chocolate pie.  Whenever the family go together, his mom would make two chocolate pies; one with whipped cream ~my husband's fav~ and one with meringue.~his sister's fav~.  One day when we were first married, I went to his mom's for a lesson.  I still have her handwritten recipe in my recipe box.  I hope you enjoy.




Ingredients:

  • 2/3 c sugar
  • 2 T cocoa
  • 1/4 c cornstarch
