I followed the recipe to the "t", but something just didn't work. The bottom got way too crunchy (downright hard) and I'm thinking that's because I used a metal pan instead of a glass one and didn't knock off any time? The cream cheese filling was made too tart for my liking by the margarita mix, as well. I am giving it 3 stars because it is a working recipe, just not to my taste.
