My Momma's Derby Pie

I’m not a natural cook. While I wish I were, I guess we all have to learn somewhere. I’m slowly learning to make some of my favorites of my mom’s recipes. This past week I gave my favorite pie - Derby Pie - a shot!

It turned out great! This is an easy pie to make, even by my standards. You basically mix everything and pour it into the pie shell. In the oven, it (almost magically) turns into this beauty:

It’s definitely not a healthy pie or anything like that, but it is so good! Interested in the recipe?
