Description
Did you know:
- This pie is known by many names. The original inventors of this pie, Kern’s Kitchen in Louisville, Kentucky, has trademarked the name ‘Derby Pie’, so pie places have to find a different name for this creation. Some of the other names it is known by are: Pegasus Pie, Kentucky Pie and Chocolate Nut Pie. In fact, Kern’s recipe is so secret that only a few people know it; everyone else has to guess at the ingredients.
- Sometimes, this pie can be made with pecans instead of Walnuts.
- That, for an authentic experience, you should have some Kentucky bourbon with this pie, preferably in the form of a Mint Julep.
