== Description ==
Using all the best ingredients, you can whip up an improved version of this Kentucky Derby Day treat right in your home kitchen. So don your derby cap, rev up that mixer, and place your bet on the best pie to ever grace the winner's circle!
I recently found this recipe scribbled on a vintage manila card, in an old recipe box straight from Louisville, Kentucky. It sat alongside a second version of the same recipe which I will also include here.
Ms. Wakefield's recipe box contained an extensive collection of hand-written treasures from Louisville, Kentucky spanning several decades beginning in the early '40s. Ms. Wakefield also had a recipe or two published in American Home Magazine. Enjoy!
== Ingredients ==
* unbaked 9 inch pie shell
* 2 eggs, slightly beaten
* 1 cup sugar
* ½ cup butter, melted
* 3 to 4 tablespoons bourbon
