Return of the Son of the Chocolate Pudding Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Sift flour, the 1.5 tsp sugar, and the 1/2 tsp salt into a 9-inch pie plate, making sure they are well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil and milk.
  4. Add this to the pie plate, and mix with fork until well blended.
  5. Starting from the center, press crust evenly into pie plate.
  6. Flute edges with fork (if you want).
  7. Freeze pie crust for ten minutes.
  8. This will help prevent it from bubbling up while baking.
  9. Place chilled crust in oven and bake until light golden brown, about ten minutes (maybe more if your freezer is really powerful).
  10. Set crust aside in a cool place.
  11. For the filling, prepare a cold bowl by placing it in a few inches of ice-cold water in the sink.
  12. Next, combine the 1/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, cocoa, and the 1/4 tsp salt in a medium saucepan.
  13. Whisk together cream and egg yolks, then whisk this into the sugar mixture.
  14. Cook on medium-low heat, stirring almost constantly, until thickened (about 8 minutes).
  15. Add chocolate and butter, and stir quickly to melt.
  16. Most likely the pudding will need sieving, so pour though a sieve or mesh strainer into the cold bowl.
  17. Allow it to cool somewhat, then pour it into your prepared crust.
  18. Cover with plastic wrap (it should be touching the surface of the pudding, to prevent skin).
  19. You may have extra pudding if your pie plate is shallow or your pudding was exceptionally smooth.
  20. Pour this into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap as well.
  21. Place pie and any extra pudding in the refrigerator, and allow to set for at least 30 minutes, preferably one hour or more.
  22. Refrigerated pie will keep for several days.
