Chocolate Cream Pie

This is lovely with some whipped cream on top too!

CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE

P1020128.jpg

1 1/2 cups whole milk (chocolate is even better)

2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar

1 Tablespoon Cornflour

1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chocolate chips

Sweet Pastry Case (supermarket ones work fine if you don't have time to whip one up yourself :-D )

In a medium saucepan stir together all ingredients EXCEPT chocolate chips. Heat over a medium-medium high heat until mixture begins to thicken and boil. Boil for 1 - 1 1/2 minutes, making sure to stir constantly. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the chocolate chips until melted and the mixture is smooth. Let cool about 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes.

Empty pan contents into a Sweet Pastry case and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving, to chill thoroughly and set completely.

In the photo, I've just added some white chocolate shavings . . . . . . . . then dig in!
