Hello sweet friends,<\/p>\n

Do you want to feel substantially happier this week? Here is my challenge to all of my grown-up readers\u2026 The next time you go out to eat, order a Shirley Temple. Sure, you can add a splash of vodka or gin to sass things up, however a classic<\/a> Shirley Temple with 7UP and grenadine is like nostalgia in a glass. It makes you feel like you are in a flying high in a swing on a warm, summertime afternoon. No cares, no worries, just sweeter times.<\/p>\n

The last time I ate at the beloved Hall\u2019s Chophouse<\/a> here in Charleston, I paired a Shirley Temple with a Japanese Wagyu filet and fried green tomatoes, with crab, shrimp, and bacon succotash. So good. Upon completion of the meal, I wiggled comfortably down into my chair, put my chin in the palm of my hand, and got to thinking\u2026. What if I made a dessert from a Shirley Temple? What if I made a Shirley Temple into\u2026 a pie? It wasn\u2019t lost on me that this could be either the best or worst idea that I have ever had. Luckily, hands down, it was the best!<\/p>\n

Here is how this retro-inspired masterpiece works. Grenadine, cherry Jell-O syrup, and 7UP are combined with whipped topping, and fluffed into dreamy perfection. Pour atop a crunchy homemade graham cracker crust, finish with a scandalous mound of whipped cream, and of course cherries on top. This pie is great for spring and summertime get-togethers, or just to make ahead and hide in your freezer for a gloomy day.<\/p>\n

So in honor of \u201cPi Day,\u201d make yourself at least 3.14159265% happier. Shirley Temple pie is the ultimate joy-inducing nostalgic recipe with a modern-day twist. Whip one up and send photos!<\/p>\n

Bake on,<\/p>\n
