From Pizza Pie to Mud Pie!

Growing up on a farm there were always mud pies made after a good rain. There were also a lot of cow pies to watch out for!! So just like when I was a kid, we grabbed moms good pie pan, ran outside and found a pile of mud to dig around in. Filled up the pan, found a few pretty rocks and 'waahlaah', the best ever mud pie!
"The red rocks are strawberries, the yellow rocks are banana's and the ones with black spots are pepper!" 
Such imagination!!

Hours after a huge Thanksgiving dinner last year at my in laws house, my Mother-in-law pulled out two big chocolate pudding pies that my husbands Grandma made. They were so scrumptious and the best part was the CRUST!! So I asked Grandma the recipe and she rattled it off:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup oil
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp salt
That's it! She said she makes a few at a time and has them in the freezer for when unexpected guests come over, then she just whips up some pudding and 'waahlaaah', the best pudding pie ever!!
