Reviews
Very tasty…got rave reviews at church and at work (where I served a more adult version.
The pie never set, in spite of chilling in the refrigerator overnight. It was way too runny. I had to throw it away. The flavor of the filling however, was delicious.
Thought I would try something a little different this year, and was pleased that the whole family really loved this pie. Still no substitute for good ol pumpkin.
This pie is very easy to make. I personally like eggnog too much. When I brought it to family dinner over christmas, they were quite suprized that there was such a pie. It was a big hit.
