Ingredients

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, (I used Nestle', that's what I had on hand)

1 stick of Butter

1 cup Sugar

1/2 cup Flour

2 Eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

It's A very simple recipe 1950's Fudge Pie but so decadent and definitely at first bite sends you to chocolate heaven!

I like to change recipes sometimes..the only change I made in this was instead of baking it in a 9 inch pie pan, I made it into 4 tart pans, baked for 12-15 minutes in my convection oven.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place chocolate and butter in a 4-cup Pyrex measure or microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high heat for 30 seconds more.Let sit for a minute or so and stir until chocolate dissolves completely. Add sugar, flour, eggs , vanilla and salt. Pour into lightly oiled 9-inch pie pan.

Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool for as long as you can wait. If you can't wait, vanilla ice cream helps cool a slice of pie on your plate.
