Chocolate Silk Pie 
Be sure to thoroughly chill this no-bake pie before
attempting to slice it.
Serves 6-8
1 cup Sugar
6 ounces Butter
6 ounces Chocolate, bittersweet (unsweetened)
4 Eggs
2 teaspoons Vanilla
1 Tablespoon Kahlua (optional) (note: This is
coffee-flavored liquor.)
1 Pie shell (9-inch), pre-baked
Whipped cream
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over simmering water. Set
aside and allow to cool slightly. Using an electric mixer,
cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the chocolate, vanilla and Kahlua (if used) and blend. With the mixer running, add 1 egg and beat for 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining 3 eggs (mixing each for 5 minutes).
Pre-bake the pie shell and allow to cool. Pour the mixture into the shell. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (overnight is best). Serve cold, topped with whipped cream.
