How To Make french silk pie

  • 1
    Bake pie shell according to directions on package. Melt chocolate squares in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring to prevent burning. Turn off heat and let chocolate cool.
  • 2
    Beat sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla, cream of tartar, and melted, cooled chocolate.
  • 3
    Add eggs and beat mixture until light and fluffy on low to medium speed. Beat about 3 minutes. Pour beaten mixture into the cooled pie shell and refrigerate until set (3 - 4 hours).
  • 4
    In a chilled mixing bowl, beat whipping cream and powdered sugar with a chilled beater until mixture is stiff. Top set pie with whipped cream. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
