Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Spoon into pastry shell.

That's it!
You can make a meringue for the top of the pie using the egg whites but I prefer some homemade whipped cream.

Uh-oh...
Sweet Niniveh got a whiff of my chocolate pie. Looks like I'm gonna have to dollie arm wrestle her for this one. I think I can take her. Wish me luck.
