   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/4  Pound         Butter
    3      Ounce         (Squares) unsweetened choc.
    3                    Eggs
    1 1/2  Cup           Sugar
    3      Tablespoon    Light corn syrup
    1      Teaspoon      Pure vanilla extract
                         Vanilla ice cream (optional)
 
 You'll also need pastry for a 9 pie. 
 
 1.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 2. Line a 9 pie plate with the pastry.
 3. Combine the butter and chocolate in a saucepan. Heat gently, stirring
 often, until melted and blended. 4. Beat the eggs until light and frothy.
 Stir in the corn syrup, sugar, and vanilla.  Pour in the chocolate mixture,
 stirring. 5. Pour the filling into the prepared pie plate.  Bake 35 to 40
 minutes, or until the top is slightly crunchy and the filling is set.  Do not
 overcook.  The filling should remain soft inside. 6. This is best served warm
 with a spoonful of vanilla ice cream on top, but it is excellent served at
 room temperature or cold.
