Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- For the meringue, separate the egg whites from the egg yolks. Set aside the egg yolks. The egg whites should be room temperature before beginning to prepare the meringue. Beat egg whites in a stand mixer or by hand if you prefer until soft peaks form (the meringue will stand, but will still look a little frothy). Add the cream of tartar, sugar, and vanilla to the egg whites while continuing to beat the egg whites. Continue to beating until stiff peaks form.
- For the filling, mix cocoa, flour, and sugar in a medium-sized sauce pan. In a separate bowl, whisk 4 egg yolks, salt, and milk. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients in the saucepan. Cook at medium heat until thick, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chocolate chips, vanilla, and butter. Pour into pre-baked pie crust.
- Gently mound the meringue over hot filling being careful not to leave any gaps between the meringue and crust. Bake the pie in the 375 degree oven until meringue is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the meringue. If your oven doesn't brown very well, remove the meringue and use a torch to brown the peaks or increase the oven temperature to 500 degrees for one to two minutes to ensure browning, but not overcooking.
- Remove the pie from the oven and allow to cool. Once the pie is cool, tent tin foil over the top of the pie and place in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours. Make sure that the pie is cool before placing in the refrigerator or condensation will form on the meringue.

GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE MERINGUE PIE
My grandmother served this old fashioned chocolate pie recipe after Sunday dinner each week, usually with an apology it was "too runny" or something else was wrong with it. Of course, grandma's chocolate pie was never less than perfect! - Donna Vest Tilley, Chesterfield, Virginia

GRANNY'S CHOCOLATE MERINGUE PIE
Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Mix well. Add the shortening and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and let sit 1 minute. Either using a fork or your hands, carefully press the mixture together to form a soft ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough on the floured surface into a circle about 12 inches in diameter and 1/8 of an inch thick. Gently fold the circle of dough in half and then in half again so that you can lift it without tearing it, and unfold into a 9-inch by 2-inch deep-dish pie pan. Crimp the edges and place in the oven. Bake until golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
- In a saucepan, combine the chocolate, 1 cup sugar, cornstarch and salt. Mix well. Stir in the milk. Place the pan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Beat the egg yolks. Add 1/2 cup of the hot mixture to the egg yolks and mix well. Add the mixture back to the saucepan and continue to cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and butter. Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell and cool completely. Cover with plastic and refrigerate until chilled.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Beat the egg whites, on medium speed, until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Spread the meringue evenly over the pie. Place in a preheated 350 degree oven, on the top rack and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove and cut into individual servings.
MY GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE PIES
My grandma didn't measure anything so this is as close as I could get. I never said it was a healthy recipe. It can be made without the evaporated milk and using low fat or skim milk and using margarine instead of butter but please use real vanilla and a good quality cocoa. You might have to adjust the cornstarch or cocoa depending on how thick or chocolaty you like your pies. I make 2 of these pies for every church covered dish meal and never get to bring a slice home. Oh yes...you can cook the filling in a large double boiler to avoid scorching it, it just takes longer.

Steps:
- Mix cocoa, cornstarch, beaten egg yolks; sugar and salt, then add milk gradually, while stirring in a pot over med-high heat. Cook until thick, beating it smooth. While stirring, mix in the vanilla. Cream pies take some time to thicken, so stir... and stir (10 to 15 minutes). Using a heavy bottom pan really helps. Just keep it up until it thickens. Pour into a pre-baked pie shell. Put in the fridge to chill for several hours before serving. Add whipped cream, cool whip, or a baked meringue for the topping if you like :)
GRANDMA'S LEMON MERINGUE PIE
Grandma Rusche left of with so many wonderful memories and would bake the most wonderful pies I've ever had. Sadly the only one that I know of that she "kind of shared"; or came close to sharing was this Lemon Meringue. She gave me ingredients - and "kind of amounts" and I took that and several recipes I found that included those items as well as the instructions and I've written it here as best I could from what she gave me and I think it comes pretty close with it's tart lemon filling and mile high meringue. One of the big things she always said was you always had to leave at least one seed in the filling, not sure if she said it was for flavor or luck - but hey; I ALWAYS leave ONE seed in as not taking any chances with Grandma's Lemon Pie"

Steps:
- Lemon Filling:.
- Whisk the egg yolks in a medium bowl and set aside.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, add 6 Tbsp cornstarch, 1 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups water, and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil on medium heat, whisking constantly. Let simmer for a minute or two until the mixture begins to thicken.
- Once the cornstarch mixture has thickened up well (consistency of Cream of Wheat) remove from heat. Take a spoonful of the cornstarch mixture and whisk it into the beaten egg yolks to temper the yolks. Continue to whisk in spoonfuls of the cornstarch mixture until you've used about half of the cornstarch mixture.
- Then add the egg yolk mixture back to the pot with the cornstarch. Return to a boil, on medium to medium high heat, stirring constantly. Cook 3 to 4 minutes. (The starch will keep the eggs from curdling.).
- Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and butter.
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Meringue:.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1 Tbsp cornstarch and 1/3 cup of cold water until the cornstarch dissolves.
- Heat on medium heat and whisk until the mixture bubbles and thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Whisk together 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar, set aside.
- Place egg whites and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract in the bowl of your mixer. Start beating the egg whites on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium.
- Once the egg whites are frothy, add in the sugar and cream of tartar, a spoonful at a time. Beat until the egg whites forming soft peaks.
- Add the gelled cornstarch water mixture a spoonful at a time, as you continue to beat the egg whites. Increase the speed to high and continue to beat until the egg whites have formed stiff peaks.
- Filling Pie Shell:.
- I have not included a pie crust recipe as never got that from Grandma and to this day have not been able to make one to her standards so I use pre-made crusts that I pre-bake according to instructions on the box. I'm STILL trying unsuccessfully; to find the skill or recipe to even come close to her perfect pie crust.
- Heat the lemon filling again, until it is bubbling hot.
- Pour the hot filling into the pre-baked pie shell.
- With a spatula to spread the meringue mixture evenly around the pie making sure to seal to the edges of the pie shell.
- With the back of a spoon create peaks all over the meringue.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 325°F, until the meringue is golden brown.
- Cool completely to room temperature. If the pie is even remotely warm when you cut into it, the lemon base may be runny.
