Crack Pie
NeedTaste |Whoa, this crack pie recipe is definitely addictive (and delicious ). With a creamy middle, it's super sweet and tastes like a brown sugar custard pie. The top forms a crust that we loved. We can see why Judy chose to use a regular pie crust instead of an oatmeal one. It really does help to cut down on the sweetness. Pour yourself a big glass of milk and enjoy . Y'all, this is the hottest pie up in the east coast (mainly New York) and it's called Crack Pie They call it Crack Pie because one bite and you will go back for more. It's addictive. This pie is sweet and gives you a sugar high. If you want a pick-up before you walk out the door in the mornings just eat you a piece of crack pie and you will have no need to go to Starbucks. The original crust for this pie is an oatmeal cookie crust but since this pie is so rich and sweet I just did a regular plain crust. Everyone who ate this pie has asked me to bake them one. Enjoy
