Ingredients

• 4 ounces German's sweet baking chocolate
• 1 stick Butter
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Evaporated milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 piece 9-inch pie crust (unbaked)
• 0 Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
• 0 Chocolate shavings (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the German's sweet baking chocolate and butter together over low heat, stirring frequently to combine. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the slightly cooled chocolate mixture to the bowl, whisking continuously to ensure the eggs do not curdle.

Step 5

Pour the chocolate filling into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula if necessary.

Step 6

Carefully place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the filling is set but slightly jiggles in the center when gently shaken.

Step 7

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to complete setting.

Step 8

Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings for an extra touch of sweetness.

Step 9

Slice into 8 pieces and serve. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
