ANITA'S IMPOSSIBLE BUTTERMILK PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
• Combine the sugar, buttermilk, biscuit mix, melted butter, vanilla, and eggs in a blender and process until smooth. Pour into prepared pie plate and bake until browned and still a little jiggly (the pie will set as it cools), 30 to 40 minutes.
• Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing into wedges. If desired, sift confectioners' sugar or cocoa (or a combo) over the wedges before serving.

CHOCOLATE IMPOSSIBLE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350F degrees.
• Mist the inside of a 9-inch pie baking dish with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Add eggs, melted chocolate, milk, sugar, butter, salt, coffee and vanilla to the container of a blender. Blend for 15 seconds or so to combine everything. Add baking mix and whirl again for about 15 seconds to combine.
• Pour into pie dish and bake for about 30 minutes. Check to make sure the center is cooked by inserting a toothpick or the sharp tip of a knife right in the center -- when you pull it out it should not be coated in batter, and the center of the pie shouldn't be loose or very jiggly.
• Remove pie from oven and set on heat-proof surface to cool. The top may crack a bit as it cools; this is normal. (And frankly, this is just the excuse you need for some whipped cream on top.)
• When cool, slice and serve, Garnish with whipped cream and berries, if you like. Or strew the top with some crushed candies, for fun.
• Serves 8.

Steps:

• 1. Combine sugar and butter and mix until well blended.
• 2. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and mix well.

• 4. Add buttermilk and vanilla to the mixture. Stir until well mixed.
• 5. Pour into pie shells and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Or, as oven temperatures vary, bake as long as it takes for the pie to be firm and not jiggle in the middle.
• 6. Cool completely before cutting. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator.
• 7. Note: I used an electric mixer though this recipe can easily be mixed by hand. Adapted from Karen's Buttermilk Pie My older sister Karen always made the Buttermilk Pie for our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, and though I'm not sure where she got her recipe, I am sure that it was the best Buttermilk Pie that anyone in our family ever made. Yes, even better than mine. My beloved sister passed away in 1999 a few days after Christmas. The following year I decided to make her Buttermilk Pie in honor of her. I contacted family members and began a search for her recipe. To my dismay no one had it. My mother said my sister had written down the recipe for her, however, after searching she could not find it either. Each year I make a buttermilk pie from recipes I have found in books and online and none of them tasted the same. I am happy to say that while looking through old recipes of my mother's, after 13 years, I found my sister's handwritten recipe in time to bake it for Thanksgiving and my family got to enjoy a piece of Karen's Buttermilk Pie as we reminisced about her and holidays past.
