Not sure exactly where this recipe originated from, my mother, raised is the Mississippi Delta, passed it down to me - It has been a long standing tradition for Holidays, Pot Lucks and just about anytime a dessert was needed. You can make it in 2 large Pies or 22 individual pie shells - (These are a little harder to find these days)
