Why do I love Kentucky Derby Pie? Not only because it is so delicious but also, because it reminds me that two of my granddaughters goes to University of Kentucky (UK) and that is more than enough for me, Smile.
Category: Dessert Approx. Prep and Cook Time: 40 Minutes Approximate Cost: $7.17 (or .90 cents per serving). Difficulty Level: Easy Allergens, Other: For GF, please Use both GF Flour and Pie Crust Servings: 6 to 8 Ingredients 2 whisked eggs at room temperature (.30) 1 stick of melted butter (Land o’ Lake at Walmart $1.31) 1 cup of sugar (.50) ½ cup of self-rising flour (.65) 1 cup of chocolate chips ($2.71/bag) (1 cup = $1.36) 1 tbsp. of vanilla (.45) 1 tbsp. Amaretto Disaronno (.50) 2 9-inch pie crust partially baked (I used the frozen type of make your own) ($2.10) Directions Pre-heat the oven at 350 degrees. Bake the pie crust briefly, about 5-8 minutes, remove from oven let is cool. In a medium size bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs and add the melted butter that is at room temperature and beat. Add the sugar to the bowl and beat until you see the batter is real smooth. Add the vanilla and Amaretto Disaronno. Add the flour until it is all incorporated. Bring the pie crust back and add the chocolate chips, that is your chocolate bottom layer. (Or you can add it to the dough before pouring it into the pie crust.) Pour your batter into the pie crust. Bake for approx. 35 minutes, (depending on your oven) the top should be golden yummy and when a toothpick is inserted into the center, it come out clean. You can eat this pie cool or warm, either way it will blow your mind! HACK: If you eat it warm, dump a scoop of vanilla or butter pecan ice cream on top, and if you want to go further, make fresh caramel sauce and squeeze it over the ice cream as well. Garnish with fresh strawberries. Then, remember not to eat anything but water the next day! Ha, ha, ha.
