Wonderful flavor, but I did have some problems. I think it's way too thick...Maybe a 9x13 pan would work better, and adjust the time. As it was it took at least 15 minutes longer, and then the sides were very crispy and the middle was still gooey. The flavor is fantastic, tho...so it's worth trying again!
