This was pretty good, although two of my three kids didn't care for it. I think it actually tasted better the next day. It became much creamier. The 10T butter for the crust is probably an error . Standard for a graham cracker crust is 1 1/2 cups crumbs to 5 T butter, which is what I used and the crust came out great. It's very sweet, which I like. Not sure if I'll be making this again due to my kids not being fans.
