Reviews

  1. Delicious. I let the mixer run for quite a while when creaming the butter and sugar because I had seen that instruction in other recipes. It came out silky smooth.
     
  2. I love it! The first time I made it, it was perfect and also the first time I've ever had french silk pie!! It is now something my family wants me to make all the time!
     
  3. Very, very good! I like it because it's a little less fattening than the typical french silk pie!
