    The recipe does not specify which type of milk to use, but I know from personal experience with making various pudding/custard type desserts that skim milk will not set. Thankfully I had a little heavy cream in the fridge left over from Christmas cooking and did a mixture of 1 cup cream with 2 cups skim milk. It was perfect. I've never heard of making meringue this way but it turned out perfect. I cheated on the pie crust because who really has time to make a pie crust these days? Although I'm sure the homemade crust in this recipe would have been better, frozen pie crust did just fine. Chocolate Meringue Pie is my husband's favorite dessert and he said this was one of the best he's ever had. Will definitely make this one again! =

    Made this for Thanksgiving and got rave reviews. I can say it is the best chocolate meringue pie I've ever had. It was just the right consistency- firm but not solid. The meringue perplexed me, since I'd never made it that way before, but it really was foolproof. One tip- we made the chocolate filling first with skim milk, which we always use. It never got solid enough. So we had to do it again with whole milk. That time it worked great. I'm making it again today for my husband's birthday "cake" as requested.

    I was very disappointed. the meringue recipe I have used before. The pudding never go thick and set up. we had to serve in a bowl. I cooked and cooked the pudding and it was picure perfect but the pudding would not set up for cutting.

    I had never made meringue using cornstarch but it really added a smoothness not always found. The chocolate filling was perfect. If you can follow a recipe, this pie is really easy and your friends and family will love love love it!
