Now pour this mixture into the double boiler with the rest of the hot chocolate and stir. Add 2 T. butter to this and cook with constant stirring for 10 mins. longer. Pour a small amount of this cooked mixture over the well beaten egg yolks while stirring vigorously to keep from cooking the eggs and immediately pour this back into double boiler and stir and cook until thick. Watch carefully. When starting to thicken, remove from heat and add the vanilla and stir. Pour into a baked pie shell. Top with meringue or frozen whipped topping, thawed. Refrigerate till set. This method of pouring back and forth with stirring helps prevent lumps from forming.
