~The Desserts~

Cherry Pie

Homemade Apple Pie
(My second attempt...it was good, but can be better!)

My attempt at my mothers chocolate pie. Made with an oil-based crust and rich chocolate filling. Very very yummy, but next time I would like less crumbly crust.

~Mom's Chocolate Pie~**
15 lg. marshmallows
1/2 c. milk
6 pk. reg. Hershey bars, plain
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 pt. whipping cream

Melt in microwave in a large microwave safe bowl the marshmallows, 5 chocolate bars, and milk. Stir every few min. to combine and to prevent burning; continue until complete combined and melted together. Cool. Whip the cream, add the vanilla and fold into the cooled chocolate mixture. Pour entire mixture into cooked and cooled pie shell. Grate remaining chocolate bar on top of filling. Chill in refrigerator until firm. Cut, serve, and enjoy!
