8 servings
- •0.75 cup white sugar
- •2 tablespoons self-rising flour
- •1 tablespoon cocoa powder, or more to taste
- •2 cups whole milk
- •2 large egg yolks
- •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- •1 (9 inch) pre-baked pie shell
- •2 large egg whites
- •1 pinch white sugar, or to taste
- •1 dash vanilla extract, or to taste
Instructions
- Mix sugar, flour, and cocoa powder together in a bowl until well combined.
- Mix milk, egg yolks, and vanilla together in a separate large bowl. Add flour mixture and blend custard until smooth.
- Pour custard into a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring continually, until slightly boiling but not popping, about 5 minutes. Cook just until reasonably thickened, 3 to 5 minutes more, and remove from heat immediately. Stir hot custard to smooth out any lumps and pour into the pre-baked pie shell.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Combine egg whites, sugar, and vanilla for meringue in a small bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until peaks start to form. Spread meringue over custard.
- Cook under the preheated broiler just until the peaks start to turn light brown, 1 to 2 minutes, being very careful not to let meringue burn.
- Place the custard pie in the fridge or on Grandma's porch on a cool night until the custard congeals, about 2 hours.
