"As we all know, there are 2 basic versions of shoofly pie, the dry kind you can dunk and the wet kind that oozes its sweetness. This one falls in the middle and is an excellent example of Pennsylvania Dutch baking." — Kevin Ryan

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup shortening, chilled and diced
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup boiling water
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup dark molasses
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie
There must be something missing in this recipe. I tried it and it did not turn out very well. There seems to be to much water and not enough syrup and molasses in this pie. Any way I had to throw ti out. Cna you tell me if maybe 1 cup of water is to much and if this pie should be baked longer than what the recipe called for. Mypie turned out really soggy. jane
I tried this recipe, and when I cut into the pie to serve it, the bottom was all liquid...did I do something wrong? It tasted good but seemed to be a strange consistency.
