Oh gosh this was really good! I used confectioners sugar for the filling instead of granulated sugar to make it more fluffy and lighter. The crust on this is wonderful as is for the whole pie, great recipe akgrown! thanks for sharing...Kitten

These seemed more like Kellogs chocolate rice krispie treats at first, but when I tried them they were not quite those in texture, but the taste was awesome! My only problem with this recipe was that since the filling stays creamy, the rice krispies get soggy when you cut them. But as long as the krispies are crisp, this is deliciouS! Thanks akgrown for this scrumptious recipe!! Will be made very often in this household :D
