German Chocolate Pie

This recipe was received to rave reviews.  My family hasn't raved this much over a recipe in a long time.  I think this one will find it's way back on the tables soon.

You will need a deep dish pie crust for this recipe.

You are going to use all 4 oz of the German chocolate bar.

Add 4 Tablespoons of butter into a saucepan with the 4 oz of chocolate.

In another bowl add 1 1/2 cups sugar.

3 Tablespoons corn starch

1/8th teaspoon salt

Stir the chocolate and make sure it is all melted. Remove from heat and let cool a little bit.

Add 1 can evaporated milk to the chocolate mixture.

Mix well.

Add the chocolate mixture into the sugar mixture.

Stir well.  Make sure all the lumps are gone.

Add two eggs.

1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix well and pour into an unbaked deep dish pie crust.

In a small bowl mix 1 1/3 cup coconut

1/2 cup chopped pecans

Stir together well.

Sprinkle on top of the pie.  Place in a preheated 375 oven.  Bake 45-50 minutes.  If the coconut is getting too dark after about 30 minutes, lightly cover with foil.

Mine boiled over a little bit.

This is such a good pie and it is also easy to make.
