I've heard of shoofly pie but never knew exactly what it was so just looked up the recipe. I like molasses as an ingredient in recipes but people actually eat a pie made pretty much with nothing but that as the filling??? 
It is really, really, really good. And that crumbly topping cuts down on the molasses taste a bit. But only have one piece. Two would be too much.I've heard of shoofly pie but never knew exactly what it was so just looked up the recipe.

That's what I was thinking, i.e. that it would be really overpoweringly sweet. Even more so than pecan pie which is delicious but even with my sweet tooth, I can't eat more than a sliver at a time.
The ox tongue cookie recipe sounds a lot like what my Grammie called molasses cookies and those are delicious. Uh oh, that might mean I'm agreeing with you again. Mark the date on your calendar!
I have made the molasses spice cookies and they are good. My girls don't like gingerbread, so I had to find an alternative.That's what I was thinking, i.e. that it would be really overpoweringly sweet.

They were my favorites along with her mincemeat cookies but that one might have you back in ewwwww territory as her homemade mincemeat had venison in it.
With God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.....
That was a great show!
That was a great show!
Yes, it was!
I watch that episode the day before Thanksgiving every year!

It's looking like I may need a 10mg Xanax to make it through this Thanksgiving. Oh they don't make 10mg Xanax? Well then just hit me with what you got, please and thank you.
I think this adds up to 3.75 - hope that's enough!
Those look delicious! Thanks for that recipe

I made shoofly pie once and either I made it wrong or it is not my thing because I didn't like it at all. I really like molasses so I thought it was a sure thing.
I’m aghast! Go sit in the corner! Pretzel crumbs should never be used in Shoo Fly pie. (Some here (not to be named) might consider pretzel crumbs and Shoo Fly pie to tomatoes and clam chowder.)

(But I must admit I prefer a drier version, with the taste of coffee variety, of Shoo Fly pie. Yes, I’m a hoofty.
)I may not get to say it later so I will say it now Happy Thanksgiving everyone *BIG HUGS*
