MAMA'S CHOCOLATE PIE
By Toby Chod
• 12 oz. (3/4 of 16 oz. box) gingersnap cookies
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
• 2 oz. semisweet chocolate
• 1 can (12 oz.) sweetened condensed (not evaporated) milk
• 1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
• Pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup hot water
• 1 carton (8 oz.) heavy whipping cream
• 2 tbsp. sugar

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Crush gingersnaps. Mix in butter, stirring until well-blended. Bake in preheated oven 4 to 5 minutes until slightly firm
  3. Put chocolate and condensed milk into double boiler over simmering heat. Over medium to medium-low heat, cook until consistency is very thick, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  4. Remove mixture from top of double boiler. Add vanilla, salt and hot water. Pour into crust. Refrigerate until cold.
  5. Whip heavy whipping cream with 2 tablespoons sugar until stiff. Spread over top of pie.
  6. Serve chilled.
