I use a frozen crust, but use 1 large and 1 small box of Cook & Serve Pudding mix. I use 4 cups of milk instead of 5 as the pudding recipe calls for. I separate three eggs. The yellows are cooked in the pudding and the whites are beat to make meringue for the topping. Then the meringue is baked until light brown with slightly darker tips. The yellows in the pudding make for a rich chocolate, coconut, butterscotch or your choice. Bake crust.
Yumm .. That sounds like a fantastic chocolate pie .
