Possum Pie, a 4-Layer Delectable Southern Dessert
Gail shows how to make Possum Pie with step-by-step details. Possum Pie is a delicious 4-layer dessert with a nutty crust, cream cheese filling, chocolate pudding, whipped cream, and topped with chopped nuts. No, it does not have any possum in it, but the southern name for this yummy dessert is Possum Pie. I have been making this recipe for about 45 years or so. (This shows how old I am!).
