Not sure exactly where this recipe originated from, my mother, raised is the Mississippi Delta, passed it down to me - It has been a long standing tradition for Holidays, Pot Lucks and just about anytime a dessert was needed. You can make it in 2 large Pies or 22 individual pie shells - (These are a little harder to find these days)
Ingredients:
3 cups sugar
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
4 eggs
1/2 cup butter
10 ounces evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
Directions:
1. Mix Sugar and Cocoa together until blended.
2. add all other ingredients until well blended - Do not over mix.
3. Pour in pie shells.
4. Once cooled top with whip topping and shaved chocolate sprinkles.
5. I make 2 large pies or 22 tarts.
