A local favorite has been named as Pennsylvania's signature state dish.
Stacker.com released its list of the signature foods for all 50 states, which included Shoofly pie as the Keystone State's signature dish.
"Shoofly pie is a traditional dish of the Pennsylvania Dutch, with a noticeable name. Its crust is buttery, and the filling is made of molasses, shortening, and egg, topped with sweetened crumbs. Variations flavor the filling with coffee or the topping with cinnamon," Stacker's Ellen Dewitt writes. "Most agree that its name is derived from the flies drawn to the sticky molasses as the rich pies were cooling.
