  1. This pie is amazing. I put 1/2 cup coconut in it to make it coconut cream pie. My dad couldn't stop talking about how it was the best coconut cream pie he's ever had. Great!
     
  2. Truly delicious pie, very rich and creamy, but I think I'll use a little less sugar the next time. I made two, and I'm taking one to an important meeting to share with friends over coffee. Yum.
     
  3. Hey Jude! I made this pie yesterday because I saw your recommendation of it on the boards. You were right! It is fantastic! I prepared it as directed, using Mean Chef's Basic Pie Crust, which has become a standard in my home. I served it with fresh blueberries and a dollop of whipped cream. So creamy and delicious! A delight in every bite!! Thanks so much for bringing to Zaar to share with us!
     
  4. Absolutely delicious. I agree that it fills 2 9" pie tins, not one.
     
  5. This was wonderful, though I have to admit I don't know what a Amish Cream Pie taste like. Don't have it in my part of the world. *Grin* But it was a wonderful recipe, and the whole family gave it 2 thumbs up! Thanks Judy!
