Gather dough into a ball.

flour. On floured surface, roll dough into a 12″ circle. Fit into a
10″ pie plate, fluting edges. Line crust with foil; fill with pie
weights or dried beans.
3. Bake crust 10 minutes; remove foil and weights. Bake 12-15 minutes
longer, until golden; set aside. To prepare filling, in small bowl,
sprinkle gelatin over 1 tablespoon cold water; let stand 1 minute. Add
boiling water, stirring until gelatin is dissolved. Let stand 5
minutes.
4. In another small bowl, stir together sugar and cocoa. With mixer on

beat, scraping sides of bowl occasionally, until stiff. Add gelatin;
beat until blended. Pour into pastry shell.
