Procedures:
| 1 | Pastry for a 2 crust 9 inch pie shoo-fly pies are not made here (indiana) as commonly as in pennsylvania. | | 2 | However, this cookie recipe is a wonderful substitute. | | 3 | It is like a tender gingerbread in a pastry crust, with a thin, subtle layer of molasses pudding on th bottom. | | 4 | Line a 2 quart rectangular glass baking dish with pastry, crimping the dough well at the top and over the sides--you do not want it to slip during baking. | | 5 | With a food processor or mixer, combine the crumb ingredients; reserve. | | 6 | Preheat the oven to 325°F. | | 7 | In a medium bowl, combine the molasses, corn syrup, salt, baking soda, and boiling water. | | 8 | Pour ?cup of the liquid into the pie shell and sprinkle with one-third of the crumb mixture. | | 9 | Repeat twice, ending with crumbs. | | 10 | Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. | | 11 | Watch carefully in the beginning, and if crust begins to slip down, pat it back up with a knife. | | 12 | The top will be golden. | | 13 | Let cool and cut into 1-?inch squares. | | 14 | Note: if you really like molasses, use less corn syrup and increase the molasses |
