- 1 pie shell
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 square unsweetened chocolate, melted
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1-1/2 tbsp. instant coffee grounds
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup cream for whipping
- Prepare 8-inch pastry shell.
- Cream butter in medium-size bowl and gradually add sugar, creaming well after each addition.
- Cool melted chocolate; blend into butter-sugar mixture with instant coffee and vanilla.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating VERY WELL after each addition.
- (Use an electric beater or mixer, because you'll need to beat in each egg 5 minutes to make mixture creamy, thick, and fluffy.)
- Turn into baked pastry shell.
- Chill 1 - 2 hours.
