Remember these very difficult Pumpkin Spice Muffins<\/a> consisting of TWO ingredients…<\/p>\n

Well, this new recipe is MUCH more challenging with a whopping FOUR ingredients.\u00a0 You can see how I’m simplifying things at this stage in my pregnancy!\u00a0 By the way, I’m 30 weeks today!\u00a0 Since all 3 of my maniacs have been early, I’m assuming (HOPING) this one will be early, too.\u00a0 I guess that would mean I have less than 10 weeks!!! :)\u00a0 Woohoo!\u00a0 I can’t WAIT to meet this little baby!!!<\/p>\n

Until then, let’s eat PIE!!!<\/p>\n

Let me introduce you to a little secret that Kara, my sister-in-law, shared with me…<\/p>\n

Eagle Brand Cherry Pie<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> Kara makes this yummy tart, sweet, creamy little pie for her family.\u00a0 It is a nice change from the norm, and a great pie to add to your Thanksgiving Day dessert menu!<\/p>\n

Kara’s Eagle Brand Cherry Pie Recipe<\/span><\/h2>\n

What you need:<\/p>\n

Graham Cracker Pie Crust, Tart Pitted Cherries in Water (Drained), Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk, Fresh squeezed Lemon Juice<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Juice 2-3 lemons, enough to get 1\/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice.<\/p>\n

Mix the Eagle Brand Condensed Milk with the lemon juice and stir until thickened.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Fold in the DRAINED Cherries.<\/p>\n

(Note:\u00a0 Use Red Tart Cherries in Water…<\/strong>DO NOT USE Cherry Pie Filling. <\/strong><\/em>In “my” grocery store, these cherries are located with the canned fruit such as pears and peaches, not the pie filling, but you may want to check both places. )<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Pour cherry mixture into pie crust.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Do NOT cover.\u00a0 Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving, to allow time to set.<\/p>\n

Whew!\u00a0 That was soooo hard!\u00a0 Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the pie when we sliced it.\u00a0 Now it’s gone.\u00a0 This will have to do until you make your own.\u00a0 :)<\/p>\n
