I'm giving it four stars even though me and my husband didn't eat the pie we only each had like one piece one day and one the next and then we threw it out. The reason being is it was entirely too sweet and let me say we love sweet stuff I literally make homemade caramel to smother our pancakes in. It was just way too sweet. I threw it out to make my chocolate chess pie in replacement of it and that is a super sweet Pie... this was a disgusting sweet I don't know how to explain it , I would not suggest anyone make this I have read other recipes were people add softened cream cheese to the recipe I definitely plan on trying that I can see how it can make it be not so sweet but then again cream cheese is very rich.
