While looking for an “interesting sounding” dessert – I came across this Derby Dqiquiri Pie in the A Cooking Affaire. This happens to be one of my favorite vintage recipe books. It’s huge, it has so many recipes – and a lot that I haven’t heard of let alone tasted.
I haven’t made this one – but it certainly fits the “interesting” requirement for today’s recipe share.
Enjoy and Happy baking! 💋
