This pie was a bit of a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was too sweet. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it was a very good pie. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and chocolatey.
