Luby's German Chocolate Pie

I have to agree with previous reviewer, Zita on this one. Two teaspoons of cocoa in a German CHOCOLATE pie? Shouldn't there have been some chocolate chips or baker's chocolate somewhere in the recipe? And also, I baked it for the suggested 45 minutes and the top started to burn but the center was STILL liquidy. You were right Zita, a waste of ingredients. I'll only make this again if it's revamped with more chocolate added. Sorry :(

I used 2 Tablespoons cocoa instead of 2 teaspoons and the pie was great. I cooked it for 50 minutes and it was crispy and delicious. My other German Chocolate Pie recipe makes 2 pies and I only wanted 1, so this was perfect. Will make again.

There was no chocolate flavor at all. The recipe called for 2 teaspoons of cocoa, maybe it was supposed to be more. I have had this pie before at a restaurant and this tasted nothing like it. What a disappointment and waste of ingredients!

Incredable!!!!!! WOW!!!!

This pie great tasting, and was easy to make and everyone liked it, even if they did not like coconut and nuts. I used walnuts, as that is what I had.

I made this pie for my DH for his birthday. It was really fantastic and so easy. I did use 2 TBSP unsweetened cocoa as others suggested. It was very rich and chocolatey and he just loved it! Thank you for this recipe.

I ended up trying this pie because I had all the ingredients on hand. I read all the reviews before preparing and decided to tweek it a touch. Here is what I did: I added 2 Tablespoons of cocoa, used evaporated skim milk, added a cup of coconut and only had sliced almonds for the nuts. After it baked 45 minutes I checked it and it was real runny, that's when I realized that I had forgotten to add the cornstarch. So I baked it around 15 more minutes and let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing. It was perfect! - with a nice smooth creamy pudding-like texture. The nuts worked and the evaporated skim milk was fine. Hubby loved it with a glass of milk. So I recommend everyone to try this recipe.

Great pie, easy to prepare and a hit with the family! I added 2 tablespoons cocoa powder on the second pie and came out with a richer chocolate flavor. Thanks for sharing!

I had to throw it out. No one in my family liked it...

Great and delicious pie. However next i will double the chocolate and the nuts and the coconut for more goodness.

I used 2 tsp of cocoa in the mixture but sprinkled 1 tbs cocoa powder on top as in the recipe photo.. YUMMMMM.. Next time 2Tbs in the mixture with none sprinkled on top as others have!

I make this every Christmas for the neighbors. A big hit amidst all the cookies floating around. I increase the cocoa by 3.

I made this for my hubby and it was a great hit! I did use the 2 tablespoons of cocoa as others did and it gave it more of a chocolaty flavor!I am making it for my Christmas dinner!

Not enough chocolate flavor & sugar taste

So I read reviews and yes do the two Tablespoons of Cocoa powder. There wasn't a 1/3 cup package of chopped pecans in the store so I bought the 1/2 cup amount and used the whole thing. I think it was just the right amount. At first you think it is gonna be soup ,but then you cook it long enough and it comes out perfect! 45-50 min for me. Soooooo good!

Great pie, a little dense for my taste compared to other marvelous german chocolate pies I've had. Notes to myself: use 2 TBS of cocoa like others recommended, bake 30 minutes before checking it. New ovens may overcook it at 45 minutes.
