I have this very recipe in an old cookbook of mine from 1947.

i am not going to rate this because it didn't work for me. after the 30 minute cooking time at 350 the pie was burning on top but still not set at all. i lowered the heat to 300 and cooked it until it was somewhat set but to be honest it didn't look at all appetizing.the taste was ok, and i covered the top with fresh whipped cream, to try to save it. i wouldn't try this again, sorry
