This pie is such an easy dessert to put together. Seriously. I love to bake and cook, but sometimes I just want a dessert that is simple and fuss free. Personally, I like having these types of recipes kicking around just in case you need something ready in a hot minute. This pie probably takes a mere 20 minutes. There is the chilling time, but the total work load is pretty minimal. It's also one of those desserts that just looks fabulous no matter what and it seems like you took way more time on it then you did. I completely love dishes like that.

Notes

Remember to keep the crust a bit thick so you might only come up halfway on the sides of the pie pan. This worked best for me. A thin crust will be harder to cut properly.
