Steps:
- Pre-bake a 10-inch pie crust (see links in Recipe Notes) and allow it to cool completely before filling.
- To make the pie filling, combine 1/2 cup sugar, gelatin and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir in milk and egg yolks. Place over medium-low heat; cook and stir until slightly thickened. Remove from heat, add chocolate chips and stir until melted. Add rum and stir. Chill until partially set. (I often use an ice bath, stirring occasionally, to speed this process).
- Once chocolate mixture has cooled, beat egg whites with a standing or handheld mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar; continue beating until stiff peaks form. Fold chocolate mixture into egg whites,
- In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until combined.
- Add 1/2 of chocolate mixture to prepared pie crust; top with 1/2 of whipped cream. Repeat so that you have 4 layers. Using a rubber spatula, carefully swirl the layers into a marble pattern. Cover and chill until firm - several hours or overnight.
- To serve: Beat 1 cup whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until combined. Cut pie into 8 slices and serve each with a generous dollop of whipped cream.

CHOCOLATE MERINGUE PIE (THE BEST EVER)
We've tried a bunch of chocolate pie recipes from here, but none can hold a candle to this one that I grew up with from the Foods a la Louisiane book (from the Louisiana Women's Farm Bureau). It's easy, not too sweet and inexpensive. Also, using a high quality vanilla makes a huge difference.

Steps:
- Filling: Combine sugar, flour, cocoa and salt in a saucepan.
- Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick.
- Pour a small amount into beaten eggs and stir well. Return to hot mixture and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat. Add butter and vanilla, mixing well. Pour into a pie shell and set aside.
- Meringue: Preheat oven to 350.
- In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites on high speed of the electric mixer, gradually adding sugar and vanilla. Beat until mixture holds firm peaks. Spread meringue over pie.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until browned.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate with a cacao content of 70% or higher.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
- Make sure the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth before adding them to the egg mixture.
- To prevent the pie from cracking, bake it in a water bath.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the pie to set.
- Garnish the pie with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving.
