So I suppose you can make a decent chocolate cream pie using a store-bought crust, with store-bought instant chocolate pudding mix, and store-bought cool-whip, but…if you want a delicious and decadent chocolate cream pie that you can brag about (because you made it from scratch), then I highly suggest this recipe.
We all remember that chocolate cream pie quote from Julie & Julia don’t we? Well, if you don’t, here it is again:
“You know what I love about cooking? I love that after a day when nothing is sure and when I say nothing, I mean nothing. You can come home and absolutely know that if you add egg yolks to chocolate and sugar and milk, it will get thick. That’s such a comfort.”
Life has been crazy busy, let me tell you. I’ve been MIA lately I know; though I doubt anyone is uber upset about it. Let me just list a few things that have been going on: Jonah threw me a surprise birthday party, yes, I’m quite the lucky girl! He got me ukulele, which I’ve been practicing daily! I’ve been working crazy hours at the office (60 hours last week). Jonah over went PRK eye surgery. We’re remodeling the bedroom; I’m sleeping on the living room floor til we get it finished. And, let’s see…oh, I ran the Sacramento Color Run this past Saturday with my MoH!
