"Shoo Fly Pie is a traditional Pennsylvania Dutch dessert. Brown sugar,
molasses, shortening, salt, and spices were all non-perishable ingredients
that could survive the long ocean's crossing to America made by German
immigrants. The pie's unusual name is said to be due to the fact that pies
were traditionally set to cool on windowsills, and because of the sweet
ingredients, the cook would constantly have to shoo the flies away."
Yummiest, gooiest, sweetest concoction ever devised.
