How can I resist a recipe for something called "Butter Pie"?!
Actually, after my first slice, I think a better name for this is "Sugar Pie". Holy Molé, is this sweet or what? This pie definitely needs to be served with a scoop of vanilla and a strong cup of coffee. Oh yeah, and keep the slices for the kids small for your own sanity's sake.
As you can see from above, this pie oozes so probably not something to take to a pot luck.
