   Preparation Time: 0:30
   Combine 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a heavy
   saucepan; mix well. Combine milk and egg yolks; beat with a
   wire whisk 1 to 2 minutes or until frothy.  Gradually stir
   into sugar mixture, mixing well.  Cook over medium heat,
   stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly.  Remove
   from heat; add chocolate, butter, and vanilla, stirring
   until chocolate and butter melt.  Spoon mixture into pastry
   shell; set aside. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar at
   high speed of an electric mixer 1 minute.  Gradually add
   1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time,
   beating until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves (2 to 4
   minutes). Spread meringue over hot filling, sealing to edge
   of pastry.  Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or
   until golden brown. Yield:  one 9-inch pie.
