I made this week’s pie on a quiet, lazy Saturday. Similar to a derby pie but with a little twist, this is a pie you can make on a whim. Which is why I call it a Saturday pie…make it with yummy things you have on hand in the cupboard and get back to that lazy weekend.
Saturday Pie {Week 21}
1 unbaked pie pastry
2 lg eggs
1⁄2 c flour
1⁄2 c sugar
1⁄2 c brown sugar
3⁄4 c butter, softened
1 c chocolate chips
1 c chopped pecans
1/2 c coconut
Beat eggs in large mixer bowl on high speed until foamy and pale in color. Beat in flour, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat in butter until combined.Stir in morsels and nuts. Spoon into pie shell. The mixture will be thick. Bake at 325 for 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between edge and center comes out clean. You may want to make a foil tent over the pie towards the end so the crust doesn’t brown too much. Cool on wire rack. Serve warm with ice cream, whipped cream or a nice, strong cup of coffee.
Enjoy!!
