This recipe won't make you skinny....in fact if you eat it you will gain approximately one pound for each slice of pie you eat! Okay, if you're still reading I'll assume you don't give a darn. Actually this recipe is my husband's (I'm sure it's not original...I think he got it from a newspaper years and years ago). It is my all-time favorite pie and we get requests for the recipe all the time.
