Mocha Velvet Pie

1 8-inch pie shell

Pie Filling
1/2 c Butter
3/4 c Sugar
1 Square unsweetned chocolate, melted
1 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 tb Instant coffee grounds
2 Eggs
1/2 c Cream for whipping

1. Prepare 8-inch pastry shell.

2. Cream butter in medium-size bowl and gradually add sugar, creaming well after each addition.

3. Cool melted chocolate; blend into butter-sugar mixture with instant coffee and vanilla.

4. Add eggs, one at a time, beating VERY WELL after each addition. (Use an electric beater or mixer, for you'll need to beat in each egg 5 minutes to make mixture creamy, thick, and fluffy.)
