Grandma Sharp's Chocolate Pie

20 large marshmallows

3/4 large Hershey bar with almonds (8ounce size)

1/3 cup of milk

1 half pint of heavy cream

9" pie crust

Melt in double boiler or microwave 20 large marshmallows, 3/4 large Hershey bar with almonds (8 ounce size) and 1/3 cup of milk.


Let cool add 1 half pint heavy cream whipped, mix together, pour into pie crust or graham cracker crust.

Shave 1/4 of chocolate bar on top. Then refrigerate about 4 hours or over night.

Notes:

1- Nancy's 9" deep crust pie crust works for this recipe

20 large marshmallows = 260 miniature marshmallows

Keep the 1/4 of chocolate bar in the freezer. It is easier to grade frozen.
