    Amish German Chocolate Pie

    I am in love with this pie.  Man, I just thought it was superb.   I mean, I love German Chocolate Cake.  Who doesn't?  But putting that some deliciousness into a pie crust is absolute genius.  This pie was made for our Chrisholm Amish homestead bake-off earlier this summer and it is a great Amish recipe.  Carmon Hacker made it and, well, again, just amazing.

    One thing I wish I would have had when I ate it this pie was a dollop of whipped cream, man, that would have just topped it off perfectly. Or perhaps a glass of milk. I rarely drink milk as an adult, but occasionally it tastes amazing if paired with the right food.

    German chocolate pie is superb.

    And if you don't want to eat the whole pie, just a slice will do...it is rich..
