But they do! I have a sweet tooth and some of their stuff is just too sweet for me. It really depends on what part of the country they are in, but Pennsylvania Amish are known for their pies. One of the most famous types, Shoofly Pie, is basically sugar flavored sugar.
- felipemnoa 9y ago>>sugar flavored sugar How does that work?
- bbctol 9y agoIt's not literal, but it is basically a molasses cake baked into a pie topped with sugar, so yeah. Sweet.
- freeflight 9y agoFrom what little research I did, Shoofly Pie is basically Streuselkuchen but with brown sugar/molasses? As somebody who loves regular Streuselkuchen I can't really imagine having molasses in it, that sounds just too sweet.
- mamoswined 9y agoWhen I was about 6 I thought very highly of it. Now that I'm 30, even thinking about it makes me feel a little ill.
- evincarofautumn 9y agoAFAICT shoofly pie is basically just layers of streusel (made with butter or shortening) and molasses with leavening, so…Streuselkuchen minus the Kuchen (egg/yeast).
