10 Reviews of German Chocolate Pie

From: Carmen Brown

On Dec 27, 2001

The recipe was easy to make although I would recommend using deep dish pie shells. The regular pie shells overflowed. Also, it didn't seem like it cooked completely - I even cooked the pies for an extra 10 minutes. I even stored them in the refrigerator. They were more of a pudding consistancy in the middle - VERY RICH. If you don't LOVE chocolate you probably won't want more than a bite or two.

    I used only 12 ounces of evaporated milk and 3 large eggs with a little extra sprinkle of coconut on top and baked in deep dish pie crust. I was so pleased to find this recipe since the Reed Bakery in Pasadena Tx had closed. It was a wonderful bakery!

    GREAT PIE! my husband actually made this at the last minute to take for Thanksgiving dinner at my parents' house. It was so easy because the ingredients are things most of us have on hand. He did, however, use real butter (we never use margarine). Everyone raved about it. We'll definitely be making this one again! THANKS!

    I was pleased how this pie baked out, it has extreme chocolate flavor and it set well when baked, the filling it is more like a light custard. Topped with whipped cream it makes a lovely chocolate dessert! thank you JQ!...Kitten

    This is one of the best pies I have ever tasted. I gave them as gifts at Christmas, and everyone loved them.

    I only wanted to make one deep dish pie so I reduced the recipe by 1/4th. I was talking on the phone and accidently added too much butter. This pie still came out beautifully. I was concerned that my pie was not cooked enough (probably because I made a deeper, bigger pie) so I covered the crust with aluminum foil to prevent burning and cooked for another 10 minutes. Good pie and simple to make.

    Very good,quick and easy to make but very rich. The two pies should serve 16 instead of 12 as 1/8 of a pie is enough as rich as it is! I froze one and had one for company for lunch. I ended up having to get the other one out of the freezer as they want more!! I two more cooling to freeze then take to a potluck next week.Doubt if we get a slice!
