Possum Pie
This recipe was found in a box of recipes that were used in the cafe we owned back in the early 1950s, when it was known as Mount Aire Camp. Since then, the pie has been on our menu. —David Heilemann, Eureka Springs, Arkansas

The recipe is fine, but the directions were kind of terrible. If there was a step by step with more detail I wouldn't have freaked out trying to make this for my friend.
Very good - nice on a hot day. Had to use 1 cup instead of a 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream.
made this for Thanksgiving.making again today for a potluck tonight....we love it!
This dessert is so creamy and rich. So easy to make. Everyone asks for the recipe when I make this.Definitely a keeper!!!
