Butter pie

Okay kiddo, do you know what butter is? It's a yummy yellow spread that we put on bread or use in recipes to make our food taste better. And pie? Well, that's a yummy dessert that we usually make with fruit or custard filling and a flaky crust on top.

So, put them together and what do you get? Butter pie! It's a special type of pie that's made with butter as the main ingredient. We mix together butter, sugar, flour, and sometimes eggs and cream to make a creamy, rich filling.

After we make the filling, we pour it into a pie crust and bake it in the oven until it's golden brown and delicious. When it's done, we can eat it as a dessert or serve it with whipped cream or ice cream.

Butter pie is very famous in some places like Lancashire in England, where they have been making it for many years. It's a yummy and comforting treat that's perfect for cold days or special occasions. So, next time you see a butter pie, try a bite and enjoy the deliciousness!
