When I think of Thanksgiving, I think of Pies. Yummy, Yummy Pies! I know that most people would think of Turkey and Mashed Potatoes and all the side dishes that make the traditional meal... but not me.... I'll just jump right over the dinner and into the dessert. I mean, come on, what is Thanksgiving without Pies?
Mud Pie
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa
2 eggs
2-1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup margarine or butter
1 tsp vanilla
1-2 Cooked Pie Crust(s)
Mix sugar, salt, flour and cocoa together well. Add the eggs.
Heat milk slowly in microwave. Add 1/2 of the milk to mixture above. Mix well. Add rest of milk.
Cook on low heat, covered, stirring often.

When thickened good (it will be lumpy) take off heat and beat with beaters until smooth.
Add the margarine and vanilla. Chill in fridge.
Then add to cooked pie crust.
Top with whipped cream if desired.

That looks yummy! A restaurant near us called Santa Fe serves something called Dirt Cake. It's served in a planter and involves chocolate pudding, Oreos, and gummy worms. Here's an image:

Wow, that looks good. I should not be looking at mud pie recipes before dinner time!
It looks fabulous, wish you were here to help me make all of the pies for Thanksgiving. But that pie is the favorite one and there needs to be plenty. I might even have to same day a piece to Elder Spencer in the MTC, not sure if Post Net still does that, but we'll see. Have fun making pies and have a Happy Thanksgiving. Love Ya.
