I don't know if anyone has made Banana Split Pie before . It's one of my hubby's faves, so I made it yesterday for him (or tried). Something went horribly wrong. I did use another recipe but they were almost identical. It was the base of the pie that I had issues with . The only ingredients are 2 c powdered sugard, 1/2 c oleo/butter, and two eggs. My old recipe called for the ingredients to be beaten for 5 minutes . The new recipe I used said to beat for 15 minutes. I followed this recipe and beat the mixture for 15 minutes. It then goes into the fridge to "set" for 6 hours and becomes semi firm like pudding would in a choc. cream pie. It was HORRIBLY runny.
So do you think that it was because I beat butter/sugar/egg mix for 15 minutes instead of 5 it caused this? Then I wondered if anyone else had problems with different butters? I did use a buttery taste one. On the front I noticed it said "65% vegetable oil" Could the butter have caused it? My poor husband was so disappointed.
