Wonderful! I've never had a sugar cream pie, so wasn't sure what to expect. Creamy and sweet, but not overly so. Makes a lovely, simple dessert that even the children enjoyed. Was surprised the pie thickened up so well without eggs. Note the recipe calls for a baked pie shell, for some reason I always try to skip that step. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    Wow! This pie was just absolutely fantastic!! Very easy to make. And as suggested from a previous reviewer, I used less sugar and it was still very, very sweet! I'll try to use even less next time (and there will be a next time that I'll be making it). Also I grated fresh nutmeg & cinnamon on top of the pie before baking. I also only used half of the butter in the recipe to reduce the amount of fat. This is just the best cream pie I have ever tasted!

    Hey Jude! I made this pie yesterday because I saw your recommendation of it on the boards. You were right! It is fantastic! I prepared it as directed, using Mean Chef's Basic Pie Crust, which has become a standard in my home. I served it with fresh blueberries and a dollop of whipped cream. So creamy and delicious! A delight in every bite!! Thanks so much for bringing to Zaar to share with us!

    Truly delicious pie, very rich and creamy, but I think I'll use a little less sugar the next time. I made two, and I'm taking one to an important meeting to share with friends over coffee. Yum.
