Celebrated my BirthDay Yesterday(Dec 16) since my Hubby's maternal Grandpa (Rev.Paul Gnanaiah - aged 101) has passed away this week on Dec 12 , not much to say about the Celebration.Our Thatha lived a God-fearing Life till his end and a Real-Blessing and Source of Inspiration to all his Grand Children,Families, Relatives and Friends around.We will remember his Inspiring Words(Sermon) and supportive Prayers life-long. Yesterday, I got a chance to taste this wonder Pie in my Friend's house.I found the taste of this Dessert so good and thought of sharing this recipe with U all. The crust of this Pie is done with Soya flour(optional) mixed with finely-powdered Cashewnuts and filled with Chocolate Cream.I should be sharing 3 Awards with U all. Enjoy this Yummy Pie!. Have a wonderful Teatime!. BonAppetit!.
