This classic-style chocolate cream pie is made a few different ways back in the 1960s.
The pies were either topped with toasted meringue or freshly whipped cream.
The crust was either made with graham crackers baked or regular pie crust and now I even use several different kinds of our favorite crushed cookie crumbs.
Any way you prefer your pie toppings, with cream or toasted meringue, this homemade chocolate pudding is divine, and using mom's Lemon Meringue Pie (another classic favorite) recipe for the meringue becomes perfection.
These pie styles are both vintage recipes and certainly, classics that bring back fond memories of my childhood!
We love all kinds of cream pies, mason jar pies and make several kinds of flavors around the holiday, apple, fresh pineapple pie, and pumpkin are more favorites!
Back in the 1960s, we looked forward to when mom made this pie from scratch, it sure was beyond special.
Sure this may be a little time-consuming but this easy-to-follow recipe is the best ever and the pie is totally worth every minute it takes.
Just choose the crust and topping styles you like, and you're off to a good old-fashioned chocolate cream or chocolate meringue fabulous pie.
