"A recipe I got from a co worker. Scrumptious. She substituted butter for shortening in the recipe and it was divine."

Great recipe! I did make up an additional 1 cup for the topping.

Great recipe! Recipe doesn't say exactly how long to cook the filling, so I was a bit unsure....so it cooked and cooked on a low setting...about 12 minutes until it was a nice jammy consistency. It stayed quite watery for a while, so glad I was patient. Butter is the way to go! I baked it only about 29 minutes, it seemed to brown very fast (probably from the butter) - so keep an eye on it!

These are so yummy! I mixed up the crust mixture in the food processor such that the nuts were well ground up. My family really liked them.
