Chocolate-Amaretto Pie

This is a recipe I've had for a long, long time and calls for uncooked eggs. Make this ONLY if you’re absolutely sure of your source. (ah, for the good old days of salmonella-free eggs!). Requires 4 hours of refrigeration before serving.

• Ready In: 10 mins
• Serves: 6-8

Ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup butter
• 1⁄2 cup  unsweetened cocoa
• 1  cup butter, room temperature
• 1 1⁄4 cups  superfine sugar
• 1⁄4 cup amaretto liqueur
• 4  eggs, room temperature
• 1  9-inch baked pie crust

Directions

1. Melt ¼ cup butter in small saucepan; remove from heat; stir in cocoa.
2. Cream 1 cup butter with sugar and amaretto; gradually beat in cocoa; add eggs, one at a time, beating 3 minutes after each addition; continue beating until sugar is completely dissolved.
3. Pour into crust and refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.
