This is a great recipe for a quick pie that does taste like a million bucks. My daughter has been making this every Thanksgiving since she was 11. Very easy preparation. The recipe calls for 2 graham cracker crusts, but we have also made it with the chocolate crumb crusts as well. They are delicious as well.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final product, so it's worth investing in the best you can afford.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Baking is a precise science, so it's important to follow the recipe exactly. If you substitute ingredients or change the measurements, you may not get the desired results.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overworking the dough can make it tough and dry. Mix it until it just comes together, then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps it to set and prevents it from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven: This helps to ensure that the pie is cooked evenly throughout.
  • Let the pie cool before serving: This gives the filling time to set and the crust to crisp up.

Conclusion:

Baking a pie can be a daunting task, but it's definitely worth the effort. With a little patience and care, you can create a delicious and beautiful pie that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a challenge, give one of these recipes a try. You won't be disappointed.
