       Title: Old Dominion Chocolate Pie
  Categories: Pies
       Yield: 1 servings
  
       1 c  All-purpose flour
     1/2 ts Salt
       6 tb Butter or margarine
       1    Egg yolk
     3/4 c  Sugar
     1/2 c  All-purpose flour
     1/4 ts Salt
       3 c  Milk
       2 oz Unsweetened chocolate
       3    Egg yolks; lightly beaten
       2 tb Butter
       1 ts Vanilla
  
   Mix flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut the cold butter in
   with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse
   meal. Whisk the egg yolk and 2 Tb. cold water together and
   add to the flour mixture. Blend until the pastry is smooth
   and holds together in a ball. This pastry will not get
   tough if you handle it a lot and you can even mix it in a
   food processor. Bake the pastry dough for 12 minutes, until
   lightly browned. Set aside.
   
   Combine the milk and chocolate in a saucepan and heat,
   stirring until the chocolate and milk are smoothly blended.
   Combine the sugar, flour and salt in a saucepan. Stir in
   the milk/chocolate and cook over low heat, stirring
   constantly until thick. Add the egg yolks and continue
   cooking, stirring for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and blend
   in the butter and vanilla. Let the custard cool for about
   15 minutes, then pour it into the pie shell and refrigerate
   until ready to serve. JM
