Favorite pie

I also love, love peppermint cheesecake. in the winter last year, we went to mackenzie river pizza company when I had a temporary job and I ordered dessert the special "peppermint cheesecake" it was so light and refreshing!

my mom and dad shared with me and it had an oreo crust. I want to make it sometime. it was sooo good, I wanted more.

Lets see, My favorite is Pumpkin pie, but I also love cheesecake and cherry pie!

Once, for her birthday, my mom got some bailey's irish cream cheese cake. I can't describe it in words so I'll use smilies.

My favourite pies are steak and mushroom or steak and kidney Oh man I miss a good savoury pie - you Americans ned to learn how to do savoury pies!!!!

My favourite sweet pie is key lime pie. We had never even heard of it until we got to the US and LOVE LOVE LOVE it now!!!! And yep - it's got to be tart, it can't be too sweet!

I get laughed at quite often I always have when I would go and order my favorite pie when I would hang out with my friends back in the day when we would hang out at a local "coffee place" that also is a well known pie place as well.

As my favorite Pie is Custard Pie

also known there as "Old Lady Pie" ... seeing as I'm not an old lady & I love the pie & they found it revolting... they'd make fun.

I LOVE it

I like pie. Mmmm....

I have never heard of peppermint cheesecake. Sounds yummy! I might have to find a recipe this winter and make some!

Ok, someone has to send me a receipe for a savory pie. DH loves those little frozen pot pies, but I've never thought of trying to make one from scratch, and wouldn't know how to begin. If anyone has a good receipe, pm me and I'll send you my email.

Mmmm...I love my mom's homemade Strawberry Pie!!! Dang...now I really want some!!! There's some German Chocolate Cake in the fridge..I think its dessert time!

My favorite pie:

Pumpkin Pie.

Nice and simple and traditional.


LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Pecan pie is my first choice. I never ate any until a few years ago, and now it is my favorite.

OK...I have to brag just a little bit here. My grandmother was raised in an Amish community and was a prize-winning pie baker in Iowa. She taught me how to make pies. I make GREAT pies. My favorite pies tend to be my own, because, of course, I make them to my taste. (I tend to lean toward Carol's preferences...I don't like fruit pies to be overly sweet.) My very favorite is maple pecan pie (if I can brag a bit more, I make the BEST pecan pie) and crumb-topped apple pie.

Key-lime pie. Mmmm....

My grandmother's recipe for apple pie. I tried to make a pie as good for years, and mostly blamed my crust for not being as good. Then, last year, we found the same apple she always used (she had two of this variety of apple trees up in the upper pasture), Northern Spy and tah dah! I finally had a pie that tasted like hers (still isn't quite as good, maybe 95% there )

Favorite cake...hmm...I have 3. Florentine Bakery of Utica - their cafe cake, a good white cake with custard in the middle (not vanilla pastry cream, real custard), and Paula Dean's Is it really better than sex cake
