I guess the little critter liked this recipe,I did not.For one thing..no sugar in the crumb mixture?.You need to double check that.Also the measurements just don't match..(ie 4 cups of flour?).I spent alot of time checking the ingredients between other Shoo Fly Pie recipes posted.Cute name but you need to recheck your ingredients.Sorry.
