I always credit borrowed recipes and this comes from the Honorable Richard G. Lugar, United States Senator from Indiana. Found this on one of those other sites and have enjoyed it 3 or 4 times. There's a surprise underneath. Thin layer of crust rises to top. Flip it and custard like filling is on top.
