Thank you Rebecca at Turned Loose for posting my blog's first comment. That was a very thoughtful and encouraging thing to do. I was so happy to see that #1 by comments on not one, but two of my posts. You made my day! And I will definitely try the cookies.
And if anyone is interested, here is the recipe for the Derby Pie..... with the sugar :-)
1 stick margarine (melted)
2 eggs (slightly beaten)
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup flour (plain)
1 regular pie crust
Melt margarine in a medium size mixing bowl. Add eggs, vanilla, AND sugar :-) Mix. Add nuts and chocolate chips. Mix. Add flour and mix well. Pour into crust. Bake at 350˚for 30 mins. Cool on rack for 15 mins before serving so it has time to set. Be sure to serve with something to drink (we like milk or coffee) It is too rich to eat by itself. Enjoy!

Wow! What a shocker to see my name in lights over here at The Sandwich Years. Thanks for the appreciation. I am printing off the Derby Pie recipe right now and intend to make it soon...maybe for Easter Sunday!
ReplyDeleteThe Derby Pie sounds wonderful! I look forward to trying it.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed reading yoour blog and look forward to future posts. I feel like I am doing a double stacker version of the sandwich years: My mom is not physically capable of caring for her mother, so my sister and share the responsibility (but we feel very blesed to have a grandma to look after in adition to helping out parents and in-laws). My dh and I also thought we were done with children when God surprised us with a midlife surprise, so we have one in college, one in high school, and one in diapers. My friends invite me and my son along when they take their grandchildren to the park. :-)
