Step 1

In a double boiler, add the salt, sugar, flour & cocoa. Mix to incorporate.

Step 2

Slowly add milk while stirring. Continue stirring and scraping bottom and sides for about 10 minutes, or until thickened. Never stop stirring or you'll have a chocolate cake on your hands!

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Once step 2 is complete, slowly stir in a small amount of the chocolate mixture while stirring eggs rapidly. If you pour too fast, you'll have scrambled eggs. Take your time.

Step 4

Once egg mixture is tempered, pour back into double boiler and continue stirring for about 3 minutes.

Step 5

Remove from heat and add butter & vanilla. Stir to incorporate well.

Step 6

Pour mixture into a pie crust and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes uncovered to cool. Once cooled, you can add whipped cream & chocolate shavings and you'll be done.
