  1. I used this crust for Chocolate Cream Pie (Recipe #43100) and it was great. It did make alot of crust I only ended up using about 2/3-3/4 and it was still thick. Next time I'll just make 2 pies with it :) I forgot to brush my crust with the egg before baking and I had no problems with the filling soaking in.
     
  2. I used this crust with Kittencal's Lemon Cream Cheese Supreme Pie (#107621) for Easter dinner. I really liked the flavor of the crust, but there was too much of it for this particular pie. I guess it was too thick. I would make it again, but next time I would only use part of the actual crust, and use the rest for a tart of something. The flavor is very good though, and I will try it again. It's especially good for someone like me who can't flute a traditional crust to save my life! Thanks for the new recipe, Dorel.
