Category: Pies - Cream and Custard

1 1/4 pkg (10 squares) semi-sweet baking chocolate
1/2 cup whipping cream
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup flour
1 cup thawed whipped topping

Preheat oven to 325. Place chocolate in large microwaveable bowl. Add whipping cream. Microwave on high 2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended; cool slightly.

Add eggs, sugar and flour; beat with wire whisk until well blended. Pour into lightly greased 9 inch pie plate. Bake 35 min. Or until outer half of pie is puffed and center is slightly soft; cool. Serve topped with the whipped topping.

NOTE: To add a decorative powdered sugar garnish, place stencil on top of cooled pie. Use wire mesh sifter to sprinkle powdered sugar evenly over stencil. Carefully remove stencil to reveal the show-stopping garnish on pie.
