Dawn (New York) says:

Delicious and not difficult to make, though messy, and a little bit on the expensive side if you don't regularly keep some of the ingredients on hand. Took ALOT longer than 35 minutes to bake and I ended up hiking my oven up to 450°F after it was still a white pool after an hour at 350°F. Wondering if it comes out of the pan easier if you slice it the day you make it. I made it ahead for my boyfriend's birthday and refrigerated it and the crust was so hard to slice and pry from the pan that it flew out and right into the trash can! VERY much worth making again so tips to remedy the above issues of bake time and slicing would be great!

Great pie, my kids love it. It would be a five star if it cooked in the time indicated. Even with the preheated stove...still at least 60mins. I have made this one multiple times.

This was easy and good... it did take about 45-50 minutes at 375°F to bake. I cooled it on the counter for about an hour and then cut it before putting it in the fridge. Also, I ave tried topping it with either a drizzle of the chocolate magic shell (after it is completely chilled) and/or the mini unwrapped Reese cups. Either works great.
