Followed the recipe exactly but I ended up with too much filling that never firmed up. The only reason I could think of is I used instant pudding instead of the cooked type but the recipe does not specify that. Disappointed because the filling tasted good and would have made a nice pie. I may try it again with cooked pudding just to see if that was the problem.
