Super easy, our almost 15 year old made it today by herself. Baked to a perfect gold color, beautiful. Reduce the butter by half, our crust was really soaked, yummy, but soaked.

Note: After the 45 minutes at 300°F, it was soupy. I reduced the heat to 250°F and checked on it periodically and baked another 45 minutes until toothpick came out clean.

I saw this recipe years ago and it is my fave. I add powered cocoa along with the sugar to make a Mounds Chess Pie. Delicious. People love it.
