Meanwhile, in a medium-sized saucepan, combine granulated sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually blend in milk and cook over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur, butter, and vanilla until well blended. Pour into pie crust and chill for 1 hour.
