Chocolate Satin Pie

INGREDIENTS
12.oz simisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
pinch of salt
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
One, 9 inch slightly baked pie shell

1. Melt the following in top of double boiler (old recipe! You can use the microwave now...melt and stir till lumps gone): chocolate chips, milk, sugar, and salt. Stir till blended and smooth, cool slightly. (Not too much)

2. Add 4 egg yolks, one at a time (save the whites in another bowl). (If chocolate is still warm, add the yolks and beat well fast so they don't cook in lumps in the chocolate immediately.) Beat well. Add vanilla.

3. Beat 4 egg white until stiff. Fold into choc., gently but well. (If you don't fold gently the pie may turn out a little too heavy.)

4. Pour into baked pie shell and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
Serve with whipped cream.

**This is a classic family recipe. It is VERY chocolately, and very good. I will post the pie shell that we use for this recipe next.
