Derby Pie

1 stick margarine
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup flower
1 cup chocolate chips  (just shy of 1/2 a 12oz bag)

Melt butter; add sugar, eggs, and flour (in that order, Ian!) and vanilla.  
Pour over the chips now sitting in the crust.  
Bake at 350F [no, 325] for 50min [no, 40min+sit] or so (until set – not just 35-40min).  
After placing in oven, it is imperative that the mixing bowl be cleaned
out thoroughly, before rinsing and placing in dishwasher.

Let cool >6hrs (really, it's best if refrigerated overnight).



[2018.TDay+2:  one MST episode (Avalanche), and got one more Mario Odyssey star.
  Played a MK8 w/ C. while pies in oven; he is better, but still in last.
  Wedding ring still missing (~3weeks now)!, but haven't done a big cleaning yet.

[2017.TDay-2: repeat of 2016 ... finished Zelda:BotW on Friday (only the boss battle
 was left, after having set it down in September).  Introduced C. and Mer to MK8 with
 auto-steering.  Nothing else, but stress...]
[2016.TDay+2: the best yet: Made 2.5x for two pie-dishes, plus ate more dough.
  But the extra filling went a long way, I think.
  Set to 325 (dialing it back).  39min, then left it in oven.
  No Wii this year; mostly solitaire on phone, and a bit of mtg:duels on phone.
  Very weary.  Graded a 380 midterm, and got several future hws out, that's all.
  324 is taking time.]
[2015.TDay: Set to 325 (dialing it back).  Ran out of sugar, so used 25% confectioner's sugar.
  Baking: It looked fine at 30min, and I took it out at 36min, and it was golden brown and fine.  
  Overall turned out great.  That eve, got back to Metroid Prime and finished the final boss.
  What, it doesn't let me go back and explore to get more than 80% completeness?

[2014.TDay: Set at 327F.  
  While baking, I finished the Runner 2 difficult-perfect-plus levels, while SNL retrospective on TV.
  At 35min, I dialed it back to 300F.]
[2013.TDay: setting to trying 325F firm.  At 32min, I dialed it back to 310, and removed at 38m or so.]
[2009.TDay: 1501 Nelson oven for 42min was burned; oven runs hot?]
