This is my all time favorite dessert. The recipe is from my mama, and I request it any time she asks what she can bring for dessert whether it's for Thanksgiving, a family vacation, or when she's up for a visit. I thought the timing was right to share this as the Kentucky Derby takes place this Saturday...6:46pm race time!
Derby Pie:
Ingredients:
1/2 c melted butter
1 c sugar
1/2 c flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 c chocolate chips
3/4 c chopped pecans
unbaked pie shell
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. If pie shell is frozen, take it out to defrost. Poke several holes in the bottom with a fork. In a medium mixing bowl, mix the first 5 ingredients together. Fold in chocolate chips and pecans. Bake for 45 minutes or until brown on top.
Happy Cooking!
