  • Betty's Irresistible Black Bottom Pie Recipe
    Betty's Irresistible Black Bottom Pie Recipe Uploaded on In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make her Irresistible Black Bottom Pie. This is a pie of Southern origin, that has a dark chocolate cream pie layer topped with a rum-flavored custard. It is served in a pie crust and has whipped topping with chocolate curls on top. It is simply irresistible! Ingredients: 8-inch or 9-inch baked pie shell or graham cracker crust ¼ cup cold water 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin 3 eggs, separated 1 cup milk ½ cup sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 1 ½ squares unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 3 tablespoons rum (You may substitute rum flavoring, if you like.) 8 oz. carton of whipped topping (or ½ pint whipping cream, whipped) unsweetened chocolate shavings or curls Into ¼ cup cold water sprinkle 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin. Stir until combined, and set aside. In a medium saucepan, stir together 3 egg yolks, 1 cup milk, ½ cup sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Make into a custard by cooking and stirring over low heat, until it coats a spoon. Remove from heat, and stir in gelatin. Meanwhile, beat 3 egg whites until stiff. Divide the custard mixture in half. To one half add 1 ½ squares unsweetened chocolate, ½ teaspoon vanilla, and half of the egg white mixture. To the other half add 3 tablespoons rum and the remainder of the egg white mixture.
