The original recipe for this ultra-rich pie used raw eggs in the uncooked filling. It now calls for either pasteurized eggs or fat-free egg product. Pasteurized eggs are uncooked eggs that have been heat-treated to kill bacteria that can cause food poisoning. They can be found in the dairy case at large supermarkets.
1/2 (15-ounce) package refrigerated pie crust (1 crust)
FILLING
3 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate, cut into pieces
1 cup butter, softened (do not use margarine)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 pasteurized eggs or 1 cup refrigerated or frozen fat-free egg product, thawed
TOPPING
1/2 cup sweetened whipped cream
Chocolate curls, if desired
Heat oven to 450°F. Prepare pie crust according to package directions for ONE-CRUST BAKED SHELL using 9-inch pie pan. Bake at 450°F. for 9 to 11 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely.
Melt chocolate in small saucepan over low heat; cool. In small bowl, beat butter until fluffy. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Blend in cooled chocolate and vanilla. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating at high speed 2 minutes after each addition. Beat until mixture is smooth and fluffy. Pour into cooled baked shell. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
