Instructions
Combine the 1 cup of whipping cream, sugar, chocolate, salt, and butter in a pan on low heat. Heat until the chocolate melts, stirring often.
Remove from heat and add a bit (about 2 tablespoons, 1 tablespoon at a time) of the chocolate to the egg yolks, whisking the whole time. When the egg yolks are brought up in temperature, add them to the chocolate.
Continue to heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate thickens and bubbles. Remove from heat.
Add the additional cream and vanilla, whisk well.
Set the saucepan on a bowl filled with ice water for about 20 minutes or until the mixture gets stiff.
Beat the mixture for 2-3 minutes or until the texture becomes smooth.
Spread inside your pre-baked pie shell and top with whipping cream.
