It is easy and quick. ***I have modified the recipe as two people had trouble with their pie setting in the middle. I have added cornstarch and had no problems with the pie firming up***"

My pie did also not firm up. Any modifications to the recipe?? The flavor was good, so I think this recipe has potential.
