For an extra depth of flavor, use blackstrap molasses. Ensure the water is truly boiling to properly activate the baking soda. If the crust edges begin to brown too quickly, cover them with foil or use a pie shield. Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent treat.

Aug 31, 2023I had trouble finding dark brown sugar, so I used light brown sugar instead. It still turned out great!
