National PIE Day

 National Pie Day
1/23/16

This is the simplest pie to make in the whole world...
and we like it a lot.


 CHOCOLATE PUDDING PIE
(now, it has to be COOK AND SERVE and NOT Instant Pudding...
MUCHO better tasting..
just follow directions on the package and always add just a capful of Vanilla.
(my Aunt Lillian always put a dab behind each ear...
and I do the very same thing....smells sooo good. :)





I keep 2 or 3 graham cracker crusts in our freezer and they are PERFECT for this pie...

and I always stir the pudding with a slotted spoon while it's cooking.











looking delicious....


The good thing about this kind of pie is it take almost ZERO time
to put together...


After you cook the pudding and pour it into the crust,
into the fridge for 3 to 4 hours while it sets up..


and then....pure YUM

and how fun to dress it up for a Valentine's Day dessert... 




 Happy NATIONAL PIE DAY...

I hope you made a pie for you and the ones you love.
if not....
make a JELLO PUDDING PIE and you will be loved forever and ever.....AMEN

  4. When I worked frozen in a supermarket, I used to hate frozen pies. Cause it was so easy for them to crack and nobody wanted them after that.

  9. Long before such a thing as "instant" pudding existed, my Mom used to cook the original Jello kind. Always a special treat, whether in pie form or not!

  27. I always make one for the grands and sometimes I get fancy and make a shortbread crust. Then I send the leftovers home with them. They never forget to thank me for it. Maybe I should try a piece. =D

  28. That pie looks so good! I really should make one for my husband who loves a chocolate pie, not that either of us needs it!

    My party just went up. It always goes up at 11:00 AM AST. Your pie looks fabulous!

Way too much spam and people commenting that are stealing my space to post nonsense so.....no comments allowed.
So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
