Thanksgiving Chocolate Pie

Elevate your Thanksgiving dinner by wrapping it up with a delicious chocolate pie! Simple to make, but decadent and not overly sweet. You only need 5 pantry ingredients for the filling and 5 minutes of prep. The hard part is waiting!

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
• 3 1/2 tablespoons cacao powder
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 5 ounce can evaporated milk
• 1 9-inch pie crust, homemade or store bought
• whipped cream, for serving

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and cocoa powder. Vigorously whisk in the eggs, butter, and evaporated milk until completely combined and smooth (batter will be thin.)
• Pour batter into the pie crust and bake for about 50-55 minutes or until the filling sets and there is a thin crust on the top. (It might be slightly jiggly in the center, but that’s okay - as it sits and cools, it will set up more.)
• Remove from oven and let cool completely.
• Slice and serve with a little whipped cream and chocolate shavings!
