Made this last night for dessert and it was not only easy but tasted great. I made the chocolate, I used 1/2 c. of milk chocolate chips and 1/4 c. semi-sweet. Paired with homemade whipped cream flavored with almond. Wonderful! Thanks for posting!

This would get a 5 star for ease but I thought it was grainy and not a smooth texture like I want in a cream pie. I am going to try it again an use corn starch in place of the flour. I believe that will take care of the graniness.

I gave it an exta minute after the initial layer of custard formed........even added extra chocolate chips.......it still ended up softer than it should have. It was more of a blob of pudding on crust; it didn't hold its shape, at all. Plus, I could feel the graniness of the flour. Maybe it needs whole milk? I'll keep looking. That said, it's certainly an easy enough recipe.

I was tired of all the packaged pudding pies and just wanted an old fashioned chocolate cream pie - this was it. First attempt was not so good: cooked too long(too thick), used 2 tbsp stevia(after taste)with 1/3 cup sugar, used graham cracker crust(did not like flavor). Second try was a homerun: cooked in a pyrex type oval dish til custard started to form as per recipe and did not promote cooking afterward(no cover), baked a Pillsbury pie crust(cheated),used 3/4 cup of 60% Ghirardelli dark chips, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 Ghirardelli cocoa powder. In my microwave-just under four minutes total. My relatives gobled it down and with a little whipped cream, I was in heaven.

It took an extra minute or two, but the results were great. Instead of stopping when the 1 inch ring of custard formed, I cooked one extra minute and it had the consistency of pudding. Stir well and it was fabulous! Great recipe. (By the way, I used 1% milk.)

i made the chocolate and banana and neither one set for me and i have no idea why! I was in charge of desserts for Easter also :( i used the egg whites and after the original 2 min did the additional 3 as directed stirring etc. It refrigerated half the day and after i noticed it wasn't firming enough i threw it in the freezer bu that was only a temp fix obviously. I was very disappointed

This recipe was for a chocolate pie for us . It was delicious.I used milk chocolate chips (about a cup,it was according to taste). It had great flavor, nice and high, and just a nice old fashioned chocolate cream pie flavor. It sliced very nicely. a recipe that will be in my favorites cookbook.

We loved the rich chocolate flavor of this pie! We also added some instant coffee with the chocolate chips - mocha pie is definitely delicious!
One thing that was disappointing is that our pie didn't set up. It remained rather runny, though still delicious. I think this might be because I used lactose-free milk.
Word to the wise: Use regular milk!! :)

these really are the best! i've even tried it reducing the sugar to 1/3 cup and adding 1/3 teaspoon pure stevia powder, no one noticed the difference!

I made the chocolate pie as a pre-Thanksgiving tester. This will definitely be served!! My 'test subjects' loved it so much more than box pudding chocolate pie! They want to try the banana and coconut cream versions next. Thanks!

Wonderful pie recipe! I made the coconut version, and sprinkled extra coconut on the meringue. I had to cook the filling longer than what was stated, but turned out perfect! Thanks for sharing. Hazeleyes
