This is adapted from a family favorite. This pie is a dessert my mother-in-law makes for family get togethers. After making it once myself I decided to try and lighten it up so I wouldn't feel so guilty making this without a special occasion. It is still fairly high in calories, but the original recipe was 652 calories a slice!
