SNOW GHOST COCOA CREAM PIE: Retro Ad with Recipe for Halloween!

Here's a Retro Hershey's Ad with Recipe for a Snow Ghost Pie aka Snow Ghost Cocoa Cream Pie. This is perfect for Halloween!! 

This Retro Ad from Hershey says "Snow Ghost Pie tastes as good today as it did when Granma baked in back in '33." I wasn't around in '33, and I doubt my grandmother would have baked this, but I've made it since. This recipe appeared in the original 1934 Hershey's Cookbook (and the facsimile). There's a story in the Advertisement that you'll want to read.  Not sure if Hershey was doing this as a take-off of the Baker's Chocolate Story Ads with Recipes or not.

So celebrate Halloween with Snow Ghost Pie!
