    1. Hi Carlie,
      I have made this recipe once successfully, and its so delicious, it didn’t last long! However I have tried another 3 times and it never thickens? What am I doing wrong? It’s annoying as I’m always looking forward to a slice of chocolate pie!

      1. Hi Charlotte! After reading your comment I looked over the recipe again and there was a mistake! I am so sorry! It is supposed to be 3 tablespoons of cornstarch, not 3 teaspoons. That is what the problem likely was. I do apologize! If you try it again let me know if that helps! Have a wonderful day! xoxo
