Blog Prompt – Today is National Peach Pie Day. What is your favorite pie?

Wow, I have to pick??? I will list my fav pies, because I can’t choose.

1. Key Lime Pie
2. Jefferson Davis Pie
3. Apple Pie
4. Pecan Pie
5. Silk Pie

I thought I would give you all my recipe for French Silk Pie.  Now don’t scrimp on the ingredients in this pie.   This is great for summer time, since its chilled.

French Silk Pie Recipe

1 (9″) pie crust, homemade or ready-made, baked and cooled
3 squares semi-sweet chocolate, melted and cooled
3/4 cup butter softened (do not use margarine)
1 cup sugar
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 eggs
Whipped topping
Chocolate curls (optional)

Prepare pie crust according to pkg. directions, or your own favorite homemade single crust. Bake and allow to cool.

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate, cool. In a large bowl, cream butter; gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Blend in cooled chocolate and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating at medium speed for 5 minutes after each addition. Pour into cooled crust. Refrigerate at least 2 hrs. before serving Garnish with whipped topping and shaved chocolate curls.

Keep stored in the refrigerator.

Enjoy your day with a nice piece of pie,

    My husband likes Key Lime pie but it is too tart for me. What is Jefferson Davis pie? The French Silk Pie recipe sounds divine but unfortunately I gained 5 lbs. just from reading it! LOL
