Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 unbaked pie shell
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 5 heaping tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 5 ounce can evaporated milk
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the sugar, cocoa powder, evaporated milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Pour into the prepared pie crust.
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until the edges are set and the center of the pie is still slightly jiggly. Place the pie plate on a rack to cool slightly before serving.
  • May be served hot, cold, or at room temperature. Enjoy!

Notes

Adapted from Handle the Heat.
Pie stores very well at room temperature for about 2 days, after that stick it in the fridge. It's delicious cold!
When you're shopping, take note to buy evaporated milk instead of sweetened condensed milk. They are not the same!
