Kentucky Derby Pie with Susan Carlisle

 I have a love affair with the Kentucky Derby. Hats, horses and great food go hand in hand on that day. Each year I put together a menu and invite others to join me for a derby meal. I always serve Kentucky Derby Pie for dessert. It's the best. It is good with or without a dollop of cream. 


Kentucky Derby Pie

 

1 cup sugar

½ cup flour

2 eggs

1 stick melted butter

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup chocolate chips

1 teaspoon vanilla

 

Mix all ingredients together and pour into unbaked pie shell. Bake at 350 digresses for 40-45 min. Pie will be brown when done.

About Susan Carlisle


Susan Carlisle’s love affair with books began when she made a bad grade in math in the sixth grade. Not allowed to watch TV until she brought the grade up, Susan filled her time with books. She turned her love of reading into a love of writing. Susan has released through HarperCollins’s Harlequin medical imprint over thirty contemporary romances. Her Modern Masters of Their Castles trilogy is under her own imprint. Her steamy stories have strong heroes with the vibrant women who challenge them. 


Her traditionally published nonfiction book Nick’s New Heart 30 Years and Counting came out on March 2021, under Susan May. It is about her son’s heart transplant experience. The second, a historical biography A WWII Flight Surgeon’s Story was released by Pelican Publishing under the author name S. Carlisle May.

    1. It is sweet but the chocolate chips help to counter act that. It is the perfect paring.
