I am a chocolate fiend. This is probably my favorite dessert of all and I like to make it year round, not just for holidays. Ironically I am not the biggest fan of fudge but this pie is delicious and easy to make. I am not exactly sure what makes it southern (maybe it’s the butter?) but wherever it originated I am very grateful. Enjoy!
