1 c. sugar
1/4 c. butter or shortening
1/2 c. milk
1 beaten egg
1 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Cream sugar and shortening. Add the combined milk and egg, alternately with flour and baking powder. Add flavoring and set aside until lower part is mixed.

LOWER PART:

1/2 c. sugar
4 tbsp. cocoa
6 tbsp. water
1/4 tsp. vanilla

Mix together the cocoa, sugar, water and vanilla. Pour into an unbaked 9 inch pie shell. Over this put the top part. The chocolate will come up around the outside edge which gives a nice crusty edge on the finished product.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until firm.
