I was looking through one of my old cookbooks today, and I ran across this stuck between the pages. I have many recipes stuffed in the pages of most of my cookbooks. I always plan on making a couple of handwritten personalized cookbooks for my kids to have, but I never seem to get around to it. There are many reasons why I haven't done it yet, mostly procrastination, and there is always a growing list of favorites, so that could be time consuming. Probably the biggest reason is, how do you decide what to do with the little gems like this? I got this from a wonderful elderly lady I used to work for. One day she was cleaning out a drawer and ran across this. She asked me if I wanted it. Of course I said yes! She said " I don't remember if I ever tried this or not, but I kept it all these years for some reason. Guess I know why now, here you go." Well, I came home and stuck it in one of my cookbooks and forgot all about it. Timing is perfect for sharing this one, Valentine's Day and since I've been kicking it old school all month, I'm staying with my theme on this one. It came from a Farm Journal Magazine. I have no idea what year. I remember that magazine being very popular for quite a few years. It was always around in my house when I was a child. I love to run across stuff like this, so I'm betting that you do to. why not have a retro touch to your Valentine's Day?

Fudge Pie
This an easy recipe. I got it from a wonderful elderly lady I used to work for. No telling how many generations have cooked this recipe. It is amazing what you can learn from listening to senior citizens. They have experienced things that most of us can never imagine. She was a master at being thrifty and she taught me how to cook many things that I didn't even know I liked!
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon flour ( I use self rising, but I don't think it matters)
1/4 cup cocoa
1 stick margarine softened to room temp.
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
Mix all the ingredients together and pour into a regular size pie unbaked pie shell. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes. If you want to make a larger or deep dish pie I suppose you could double the ingredients, although I've never tried this. I just make two instead. You know one won't be enough! Enjoy!
