Yummy Mississippi Mud Pie

Just the sound of Mississippi Mud Pie makes my mouth water. This was my grandmother’s recipe that we enjoyed every Christmas. This rich and delicious recipe will quickly become one of your favorites. This is not a low cal dessert, but well worth the splurge once a year!

My secret ingredient

We’ve all had this happen before…milk that’s just too sour to drink. Do you pour it down the drain? Don’t! Slightly sour milk is fine for cooking. The challenge: use up the 1/2 gallon so I don’t throw it away.

I have 1/2 gallon of fat free milk that no one wants to drink, even me! After performing the “sniff test” more than once, the milk was deemed past the drinkable stage. It’s time to cook creatively!

A half a gallon is a lot of milk! I can’t think of one recipe that would use it all, so it looks like I’ll be cooking all weekend. Here’s how I used up this milk, and by using food already found in my pantry and freezer.
