I've never heard of Derby Pie (ok, Yankee here...) so I looked it up. Sounds wonderful. Traditionally chocolate, pecan and bourbon? I saw several recipes but this one seems to be the original, according to Wikipedia. Anyone have any tips to share before I give it a go? Thanks! Hi Julie, It looks like the link did not come through. Generally you will follow the same technique and method as for Pecan Pie. You'll want to pay special attention that the pie does not over bake and souffle. An aluminum foil tent may be helpful towards the end of baking to prevent over browning. Frank @ KAF. Julie, I know that the "original" Derby Pie recipe is unavailable to the public; the bakery that makes these pies for the Derby has never been willing to share it, and is quite alert to those trying to pass off their "Derby Pie" as the "original." Our Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie doesn't claim to be Derby... but add a splash of your favorite liquor, and it's a worthy clone. Enjoy - PJH
