French Silk Pie Recipe
Nut Crust
1 stick butter, melted
1 cup flour
2/3 cup finely chopped nuts
Filling
3/4 cup butter
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
2 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
3 large eggs
Whipping Cream
1/2 pint whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Chocolate shavings
Combine crust ingredients and blend well. Pat thin
layer of mixture into bottom and sides of a 10-inch
pie pan. Bake in preheated 350 degrees oven for 20
minutes. Allow to cool. Cream butter and sugar
thoroughly. Blend in vanilla and chocolate and mix
well. Add eggs
one at a time, beating with mixer on high speed for at
least 5 minutes after each addition. Pour mixture
into a pie shell and chill in refrigerator for several
hrs. or overnight. The crust and filling freeze well
at this stage if making the pie ahead of time. Whip
cream to

whip until cream stands in firm peaks. Spread over pie
and grate unsweetened chocolate on top. 8 servings.

INGREDIENTS:
1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked
1/4 cup cold water
1 envelope (1 tablespoon) unflavored gelatin
2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, grated
1/2 cup boiling water
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 egg whites
1/2 cup white sugar
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTIONS:
Place cold water in a small bowl and sprinkle gelatin over top. Set aside 5 minutes to soften. Place grated chocolate in a large heat-proof bowl. Pour boiling water over chocolate and stir until smooth. Stir gelatin mixture into chocolate mixture; stir until gelatin is completely dissolved.
In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until smooth and light. Whisk egg yolks into chocolate mixture, then stir in salt and vanilla extract. Allow mixture to cool.
In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, continuing to beat until whites form stiff peaks. Fold egg whites into cooled chocolate mixture. Spread into baked pastry shell and chill at least 2 hours, or until firm.
