I'm not a big fan of shoofly pie, but I made this recipe for my husband and he loved it. He said it was the best shoofly pie he's ever had.

This pie is a great way to use up leftover molasses. I always have a jar of molasses in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pie turned out perfect! It was so delicious that I ate two pieces in one sitting.

This pie was a disaster! The filling was too runny and the crust was too thick. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The crust was a little too crumbly for my liking. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of molasses. But I'm so glad I did! The molasses flavor was subtle and not overpowering at all. And the pie was so moist and flavorful.

This pie was so easy to make! I had it in the oven in less than 30 minutes. And it turned out perfectly! The filling was gooey and delicious, and the crust was flaky and buttery.

I've been making this shoofly pie for years, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The key is to use a good quality molasses. I like to use Grandma's Molasses.

This shoofly pie was a hit! The molasses filling was rich and flavorful, and the crumb topping was perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making this again.
