Chocolate Pie Shell

 Chocolate pie shell

1/3 cup shortening

1 cup sifted flour

¼ teaspoon salt 1 dark chocolate bar (1.05 ounces)

3 to 4 tablespoons water

Cut the shortening into flour and salt in a bowl. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate and then sprinkle water over. Mix lightly, just until the dough holds together. Roll out and line a 9 inch pie plate; flute edges. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 12 minutes.

NOTE

You may want to place another pie plate in the middle of the pie (stacking) to keep the dough from bubbling up. More filling the better!
