Old Fashioned Chocolate Pie

There’s nothing quite like the sweet memories of grandma’s kitchen, is there? The comforting aromas, the unconditional love baked into every dish, the sticky fingerprints smudged across her well-loved recipe cards. For me, one treat reigns supreme in evoking those nostalgic feelings – old fashioned chocolate pie.

With its velvety chocolate filling and cloud-like meringue topping, this pie was the undisputed star of every family gathering when I was a kid. I can vividly recall sneaking down to grandma’s kitchen, batting my lashes in hopes of scoring an extra slice before dinner. And you can bet I wasn’t alone – there was an unspoken race amongst us grandkids to get our sugary fix before the pie disappeared!
