This is my mother's recipe (sshhh - don't tell her I posted it!) It is always a "must" at our family Thanksgiving and Christmas. Reminds me a lot of Tippins pie!
INGREDIENTS:
1 stick butter, softened
3/4 C sugar
4 T cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
1 nine inch pie shell
DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix butter, sugar, cocoa and vanilla until smooth - beating for at least 5 minutes, scraping sices of bowl frequently.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating for 3 to 5 minutes after each addition.
3. Pour into cooked pie shell and chill at least 2 hours or freeze for at least 20 minutes.
4. Top with cool whip and chocolate curls.
To make chocolate curls - using a Hershey bar and a potato peeler, run the potato peeler down the long side of the hershey bar. The chocolate will curl as you go. I usually hold on to the hershey bar with a paper towel so the heat of my hands doesn't melt the chocolate
