Girdle Buster Pie

The girdle busting pie or girdle buster pie is a 1950's American Diner classic. It is a decadent recipe that has many different variations, all of which are rich and tasty. This is the kind of pie that you eat with strong coffee to cut the sweetness and conjures images of all night diners bathed in neon glow, with classic cars. Be careful, this stuff is lethal!

Girdle Busting Pie Recipes

A classic American desert

Girdle busting pie recipes are usually very easy to make. There really isn't much to them so you can whip up a couple in no time at all. The great thing about them is they freeze well so you can make a few and pop them in the freezer and use them whenever you need. Of course these things are not to be eaten lightly :) the name girdle buster pie is there for a good reason - too much of them and you will bust out of your girdle....If you live in the UK, you would have seen Nigella Lawson doing her version of this classic desert on her Christmas special.
