Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until well blended.

    🥄 Make sure to sift the cocoa powder to avoid any lumps in your filling, ensuring a smooth texture.

  2. Gradually add the scalded milk to the dry mixture, stirring continuously to combine.

  3. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks.

  4. Slowly incorporate a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks to temper them, then whisk the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining hot milk.

    🧊 This step is crucial for preventing the eggs from scrambling!

  5. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency. This should take about 5-10 minutes.

  6. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

  7. Pour the warm filling into the pre-baked pie shell.

  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled and set.

  9. Serve chilled, topped with a generous amount of whipped cream.
