Tonks:
Well Shoo-fly pie is another one of those things that isn't quite what
the name implies. I made one once from a book and it is weird. It is
not really a pie. If I remember correctly, it has a pie crust with a
cake like inside, instead of a 'pie' like inside. Just rather odd.
Now something I did discover recently is 'Chess Pie'. Someone from the
South came up and brought one to our church picnic. Very nice, sort of
a cross between a pecan pie without the nuts and a not quite done cake.
I can't really describe it, but it was good.
