   bake in the middle of the oven for 25 minutes, until the chocolate is softly set and giggles a bit in the center. (deb recommends covering the edges of the graham cracker crust with tin foil before baking the chocolate, however i did not as the graham crackers i used did not burn from extra time in the oven.)

7. 7

   On a rack, cool pie to room temperature. the filling will firm as it cools, about 1 hour

8. 8

   Marshmallow meringue : combine 3/4 cup of the sugar with 1/4 cup of water in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and simmer syrup without stirring until the thermometer reads a temperature of 240u00b0, occasionally swirling the pan.

   place the egg whites, salt and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk. whip on high until frothy and add the 1/4 cup of sugar. whip until peaks form

    reduce speed to medium, and with the mixer running on low pour the hot syrup into the meringue in a steady stream, being careful not to let it touch the side of the bowl or the whisk attachment (if the syrup hits the bowl or whisk it will harden and be difficult to clean. if it ends up hitting anything just soak in hot water.)
