Minny's famous chocolate pie from the book and movie The Help! This fudgy - chocolate pie was a big hit in our house, just like in the movie. Everybody loved the chocolaty middle and crackly topping.
Good ole southern food plays a huge role in this movie. Goodness seeing all that fried chicken, collard greens, okra, deviled eggs, ambrosia, and chocolate pie, all my favorites. If you've read the book or seen the movie then you know that Minny's Chocolate Pie is famous in this movie.
Today I'm sharing the recipe for Minny's Chocolate Pie not with the terrible awful, but the original chocolate pie. This recipe is the actual one used for the chocolate pies made in the film.
Newspaper Columnist Lee Ann Flemming, one of the best bakers in Greenwood Mississippi, made 53 of these chocolate pies for the filming of the movie. The original recipe appeared on the Food & Wine website back in 2011 and her fudgy version of this pie is a classic. Most of all I love the simplicity of this recipe and it turns out perfect every time! If you haven't made this pie yet you need to because it's simply delicious!!!!

Just rewatched the movie this weekend! I will certainly be making this pie some time in the near future!
I can't find evaporated milk where I am, any subs?
I made the pie today. Very tasty! I might add 5 extra minutes to the cooking time.( not quite firm enough) And my store bought crust stuck to the bottom of the pie pan. So next time I will put a crust in my own pie pan.
