Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the four, the remaining 1 cup sugar, the baking powder and salt and mix well.
  5. Add the oil, 1/2 cup of the milk, and the vanilla and beat well, scraping the sides of the bowl from time to time.
  6. Add the remaining 1/2 cup milk and the egg yolks and beat well.
  7. Gently fold in the egg white with a rubber spatula.
  8. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and bake until cake tester comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
  9. Let the cakes cool for about 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. To make the filling: Combine the sugar, flour and salt in a small heavy saucepan.
  11. Gradually add the milk and stir until well blended.
  12. Over medium heat, cook until the mixture thickenes and comes to a boil, stirring constantly.
  13. Very slowly, stir a little of the hot mixture into the beaten egg, then return the egg mixture to the pan and stir until the mixture boils.
  14. Remove from the heat, add the butter and vanilla and mix until well blended.
  15. Cover pan with waxed paper and let cool (do not stir).
  16. To make the glaze: Melt the chocolate and butter together in a small heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
  17. Remove from the heat.
  18. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla and stir until the mixture is crumbly.
  19. Add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and blend well.
  20. Gradually add about 2 more teaspoons of boiling water and stir to form a glaze of pouring consistency.
  21. Keep the glaze hot over low heat.
  22. Spread the cream filling evenly between the two cake layers, then pour the hot glaze over the top, spreading it evenly over the top and letting it drizzle down the sides.
  23. Let the pie cool completely before serving.
