This pie was really pretty and tasty. I usually hating reviews that change the original recipe so much, but this benefited from a few changes. My cookie crust was to dry, so I looked up how much butter most cookie pie crusts have and went with that , which is 6 Tbl. Turned out good. Also, no info. on how to melt jam, so put it in the microwave for 30 seconds, it thinned out to a good consistency to drizzle, as photo shows, Added frozen raspberries randomly. I'm going to make it again, but will use frozen peaches chopped up and some peach nectar if needed. for a more peachy flavor.
