A Chocolate Treat

In my opinion, the month of February is all about decadence. And what's more decadent than chocolate? So just for today lets throw our diets out the window and indulge a little with some chocolate and wine. When it comes to cooking and baking it's absolutely a form of therapy for me. Being in the kitchen is one of my favorite places, put a glass of wine in my hand and I may never leave.

If you're looking for something delicious to make this Valentine's Day I've got you covered with this super easy and fun Chocolate Pie.  

Heart Chocolate Pie

2/3 evaporated milk
1/2 package chocolate chips
3 tbsp butter
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp flour
2 eggs
2 tsp vanillla extract
3/4 tsp salt
2 pre-made pie crusts

Preheat the oven to 375. Press one of your pie crusts into a greased pie pan.

and microwave the first three ingredients for about 1 1/2 minutes. Make sure to whisk every now and then to prevent it from getting chunky.

Whisk sugar and flour into chocolate mixture, then add the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla and salt. Pour into pie shell.

Bake at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes and if you're adding hearts add them here and put back in the oven for another 20 minutes.

For the hearts: get your second pie crust and simply use heart shaped cookie cutters and place randomly.

Enjoy and Happy February!
