“I first made French Silk Pie when I was in high school, then, years later, I tinkered with the recipe until I was happy with it," says Lisa Francis of Elba, Alabama. "Now, it’s one of my husband Dalton’s favorites."

This is my husband's favorite pie, however, I double the filling and put it in my deep dish pie pan. I also put whipped cream on top in dollops at the edge. We love it and so does everyone else. I have never had anyone not love it, and I make a lot of pies!

Made this at Easter and everyone loved it. I made a triple recipe and had enough for two 9-inch pies with a wee bit left over in a dessert dish. (Note: just the filling makes a nice dessert as well.)Was trying to get the same flavour as the Baker's Square version but theirs has a sort of "bite" to it and we can't figure out what it is. This version is denser and creamier, but I miss the bite...

This was incredible!!! Although the filling is dense it is still a light dessert; not too sweet, not too rich, a good chocolate flavor (not intense but very good), extremely smooth and melts in your mouth. (I used a very scant measure of sugar.) MUST double the recipe to have enough filling, unless you are making a very small pie. This is my new "go to" recipe, especially for company. Easy and excellent!

very good recipe, I did double the recipe and used a 9 inch crust. I like for the pie to be full to the top. The pie is not a death by chocolate pie. Just the right amount of chocolate that you will enjoy a full piece.

It was time consuming getting the egg-sugar mixture to 160F but this filling was well worth the work. Delicious. I doubled the filling recipe for a 9-in pie and it was perfect.
