This looks so much like the pie my neighbor served last year, at her annual holiday gathering.
It was different and delicious!
And SANTA APPROVED!
When I seen this in the newspaper ad this week...I knew I had to share it with my friends.
I know she used a pre-made graham cracker crust, and it will go great with this recipe also.
