Steps:
- Make the crust: Stir together graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until crust is set and begins to turn golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Make the filling: Sift together sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt into a medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in milk. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until almost boiling. Reduce heat to medium; add chocolate. Cook, stirring constantly, until chocolate has melted and mixture is thick, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in butter and vanilla until smooth. Spread chocolate mixture over crust. Refrigerate until cold and firm, about 1 hour.
- Make the topping: Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Sprinkle gelatin over 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl. Let stand until soft, about 3 minutes. Whisk 1/4 cup sugar, the cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in the milk. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick and boiling, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in gelatin mixture, and let cool completely. Stir in vanilla and rum. Briefly place pan in an ice-water bath to thicken slightly, if needed. Do not let it set completely. Set aside.
- Put egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-low speed until soft peaks form. Reduce speed to low; continue beating while you make syrup.
- Bring remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons water to a boil in a saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Brush down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystals from forming. Cook, without stirring, until syrup registers 240 degrees on a candy thermometer.
- Raise mixer speed to high, and beat egg whites just until stiff peaks begin to form. Immediately pour syrup into egg whites in a slow, steady stream near side of bowl, avoiding whisk. Beat until glossy and cooled, about 7 minutes.
- Fold meringue mixture into reserved gelatin mixture in 3 batches until just combined. Mound the mixture into the chocolate-filled crust. Refrigerate pie for 2 1/2 hours or overnight before serving.
PENNINGTON'S BLACK BOTTOM PIE
This is from a restaurant in Tulsa that closed down a long time ago. I got this recipe out of the Tulsa newspaper. My boyfriend asked me to post this. He used to eat this pie when he was little and said that it was the best! I have not made it myself yet but plan on doing so next weekend. The recipe does not look like the easiest to make but he assures me that it is well worth it! The picture is outstanding. I would love to post it but do not know how. Sorry.

BLACK BOTTOM PIE
My ex husband had family in Mississippi. I first had Black Bottom Pie there in a restaurant called Widemans in Meridian Mississippi. It was to die for. This recipe pretty closely is the same. The cooking time means chilling time.

- Separate Eggs. Separate the yolks from four eggs. Place the egg whites in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, cover allow to sit at room temperature until later.
- Combine Sugar and Cornstarch. In a medium size sauce pan, add 1/2 Cup sugar and cornstarch and whisk to combine.
- Add Milk and Heat to Scald. Add 2 Cups milk to the sugar and cornstarch and whisk to combine. Place the pan over medium heat and keep stirring until the milk is scalded (or right before it begins to boil).
- Add Egg Yolks. Lower the heat to low and slowly pour the egg yolks into the milk mixture whisking constantly. Once the egg yolks are all in keep stirring but switch to a wooden spoon.
- Cool and Add Vanilla. Take the pot off the stove and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla. This is now a traditional custard!
- Add 1 Cup Custard to Chocolate Chip. Working fast so the custard is still warm, take one cup of it and pour it over the chocolate chips. Stir gently until all of the chocolate chips have melted and the custard and chocolate mixture is a unified color.
- Pour Chocolate into Pie Crust. Pour the chocolate mixture into your pre-baked pie crust. Cover and allow to cool in the fridge. Allow to cool for 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
- Soften Gelatin. Take 1/4 Cup cold water and sprinkle the contents of the gelatin packet over top. Stir to combine and allow to site for five minutes. After 5 minutes, add the gelatin mixture to the remaining custard and stir to combine.
- Whisk Egg Whites Into Meringue. After the chocolate layer has chilled for at least an hour, it's time to whisk the egg whites. Take the bowl that's been sitting at room temperature with the egg whites and add 1/4 teaspoon of Cream of Tartar.
- Add Sugar to Meringue. Once you achieve soft peaks, begin to slowly add 1/2 Cup sugar as you keep whipping the egg whites. The mixture will become much thicker and glossier.
