Ymm, Pies

[devildeac]

Why the heck not?

I've got several favs but, if sentenced to a dessert island, oops, desert island, I'm going to demand one of my wife's chocolate chip pecan creations.

Whatcha got?

Key lime.

I'm not huge for sweets, but a tasty tart key lime is a lovely thing.

Fortunately it is also very easy to make.

You named this one just cuz of your buddy, wheat, amirite?

I'd take one of those, too.

Nope. Been a fan of the key lime since I was a little tyke.

Peach, blueberry, or apple. Must be served hot and with a lot of high quality vanilla ice cream. After eating a slice, it's best to pick off and enjoy crust from the rest of the pie dipped in filling. Any concern about future pie eaters should not be entertained.

PEA-can pie
or
puh-CON pie
or
PEE-cun pie

Whatever you call it, it's tasty. Even better with a little bourbon in it.

PEA-cans are for truck drivers.

2nd most important question I have asked today: is cheesecake really pie? I would argue yes, but I will accept the views of the thread.

[OldPhiKap]

Apple. Hot or cold.

[Phredd3]

If cheesecake counts (I would vote no on that), then it would be my choice.

Assuming it doesn't, I'm with rsvman: Banana cream, with plenty of (real vanilla) whipped cream on top.

Followup question, is flourless chocolate cake really a cake, a pie or a mistake?

Strawberry-Rubarb pie

[DukieInKansas]

Too many to choose but if limited to one - pumpkin pie, day after turkey (sorry, ClemmonsDevil) dinner. Pumpkin pie with plenty of whipped cream for breakfast! I am my mother's daughter!

I can still hear my Aunt Jan's voice telling everyone to be sure to save a piece of pie for Aunt Shirley for the morning.

🔥If any of the cream pies are pies, then so is cheesecake.

Cheesecake is not pie, hence the name - CAKE

We just polished off a sweet potato pie. Next will be a tangerine chess pie, simply b/c I have a bag of tangerines that need to be eaten soon so I can spare a few.

I also love cherry pie and chocolate chess pie. Not the Angus Barn kind, but the kind with the texture of a real chess pie. Angus Barn chocolate chess is good but more fudgy than a chess pie should be. Just sayin'.

I have a recipe for a chocolate bourbon PEE-CAN pie that I have not yet tried. Must do this soon.

You ain't parking on a parkway or driving in a driveway either. Don't get bogged down in the semantics. Cheesecake is misappropriately named. There is no batter of any kind in a Cheesecake. I would posit that the presence of batter is an integral element of cake. And Cheesecake IS on a pie crust. Again, an integral part of inclusion into the pie category. Now if we want to agree that Cheesecake exists in a delicious and previously undefined nether realm between cake and pie, I can agree. It ain't cake.

No batter?!?!? Have you EVER made a cheesecake? The batter consists of cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. You POUR THE BATTER into a springform CAKE PAN. It's cake, deal with it.

And, by the way, I have a long driveway that I DRIVE down every day.

You're out if your element here Donny. Flour is required for there to be a batter. What you just described is a filling.

Cheesecake is basically a custard filled pie and I love it.
