This recipe is from a cookbook my mother put together for our church when I was 9 or 10. These recipes are from all the old grannies that my mother grew up with, so you know they're good! I've never heard of a persimmon PIE, but this sounds de-lish! If I can find some persimmons, I'm going to try this for the holidays. Enjoy! (The prep time is actually the refrigeration time on this, and the cook time also allows for cooling between steps.) **This recipe is from Ruth Evans, who has gone to be with Jesus, and was one of my grandmother's closest friends.**
