Mississippi mud pie is a chocolate-based dessert
pie that is likely to have originated in the U.S.
state of Mississippi. The treat contains a gooey
chocolate sauce on top of a crumbly chocolate
crust. The pie is usually served with ice
cream. While Mississippi mud pie was originally
associated with Southern United States cuisine,
the dish has gained somewhat of an international
reputation, owing in large part to the sheer
amount of chocolate in each serving. The name
"Mississippi mud pie" comes from the dense cake
which resembles the banks of the Mississippi
River. It is believed that this dish was created
by home cooks after World War II because it was
made of simple ingredients that could be found at
any supermarket and did not require any special
cooking tools. Its earliest known reference in
print is 1975
