cook for 15 minutes. Beat well. Pour some of this into
the beaten egg yolks and combine with the rest of the

pie crust, let stand while making the meringue
Spread meringue over the chocolate filling to the edge
of the crust and bake in a moderate oven for 15 to 20
minutes, or until lightly browned.
Serve cold so that the filling has time to set. Instead
of meringue, pie may be covered with whipped cream just
before serving.
