Well, Eeyore, you'll need to cajole that little old lady till she shares her secret with you!

I understand people in the South to use a lot of lard and/or shortening as opposed to butter in other parts of the USA. It's a "regional thing" just like in the north of Italy, where they use a lot of butter and cream and in the south, they cook with olive oil. Certainly not a racist thing and nothing to be ashamed of!

Don't worry about your temp. literally, pop in the oven as soon as the heavy chill is gone. In a hot kitchen it might only take 10 min. If your kitchen is really hot definately try baking straight from the cooler. I might start with my oven at 350 for a few minutes then go up to 375 to set.

Cream cheese filling...if you want an exact recipe I don't have one at home here but I can post later. All it is, is like a cheese cake with less egg. Example: 8 oz. cream cheese, 1 egg, 1/4 c. sugar and whatever flavor either vanilla or lemon rind.
