On Sat May 7th, the 137th Kentucky Derby race was run too won yesteryear Animal Kingdom. I’ve never been to the Derby but I bring ridden a Equus caballus or 2 inwards my solar daytime (not inwards a race or anything!) I dearest horses too specially dearest Equus caballus movies such equally The Black Stallion, International Velvet, Secretariat, too my absolute all-time favorite, Sea Biscuit. Secretariat even too thus holds the rail speed tape at Churchill Downs, abode of the Kentucky Derby. Instead of watching a Equus caballus film on DVD, nosotros opted to lookout adult man the existent deal but skipped wearing the fancy hats.
So inwards accolade of the Kentucky Derby I made 2 Derby Day pies. We needed extra for 3 unlike sets of visitors that came yesteryear this weekend. Everybody got pie! The history of Derby-Pie is pretty interesting. The advert too recipe for Derby-Pie is truly trademarked too thus I changed the advert of this pie post to the Derby Day Pie.
According to the official website “Derby-Pie®, equally it has come upward to move known, was born over a one-half century agone equally the specialty pastry of the Melrose Inn, at Prospect, Kentucky. George Kern, director of the restaurant, developed the Derby-Pie® recipe alongside the assist of his parents, Walter too Leaudra. Many hours were spent trying to detect the unique blend of flavors that brand upward this classic dessert. And that blend remains a hugger-mugger to this really day. Oh, most folks recognize the existent chocolate chips too walnut pieces-but no i has ever been able to duplicate our special filling too fragile crust. There’s entirely i Derby-Pie® chocolate nut pie.”
Oh well, if they don’t desire to part we’ll only brand our own! You’re going to dearest this pie. Everybody that had a slice raved almost how delicious it was and wouldn’t yous know, it’s incredibly tardily to make.
You’ll require a nine inch partially baked pastry shell, sugar, flour, salt, butter, eggs, Bourbon, vanilla, chocolate chips too walnuts.
First whisk all the dry out ingredients together: sugar, flour too salt.
Lightly musical rhythm out 2 eggs.
Melt too slightly cool a stick of butter. Add the butter to the dry out ingredients.
Add the vanilla too Bourbon to the butter too flour mixture. Blend lightly.
Stir inwards the beaten eggs.
Coarsely chop 1 loving cup of walnuts. You tin hand the axe substitute pecans if yous prefer.
Mix the chocolate chips too walnuts into the batter.
Blend well.
Pour into a nine inch pastry shell that has been pre-baked inwards a 350 grade oven for almost 10 minutes or until it starts to puff too brown.
Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes or until puffed too firm.
This pie smells similar heaven!
The piece of job yesteryear is crispy, sweet and crunchy.
The middle is fudgy, nutty and delicious.
One of our guests said the pie was much lighter than yous would think.
It’s non overly rich too is slap-up alongside whipped topping. The traditional Derby Pie is served alongside sweetened cream too thus of course of pedagogy nosotros wanted to concur to tradition!
While enjoying our warm Derby Day Pie, nosotros enjoyed watching the pre-race extravaganza.
