This rich dessert is my own creation, and I'm very proud of it. It's easy enough to make for every day but special enough to serve guests or take to a potluck. —Kathy Specht, Clinton, Montana

Kathy here! Just a heads up that I DID NOT put the foil in my recipe. I guess the editors thought it was required, but I did not! So sorry about that !!!

Thank goodness for the foil warning! I hope you don't use a microwave, any electronic devices, a cell phone, flourescent lights, or breathe the air.Tart was wonderful.

I baked the crust on baking sheet. Cut it in pieces and put it in miniature dessert dishes. Poured the mixture on top. Topped with whipped cream. Everyone did think it was a fancy dish.

Wonderful, but would never serve 16 in my household!!! Wonderful taste and easy to make.... can't believe the number of people who don't know that aluminum foil is not a health threat. Look it up people!!!!

What is with all this stuff about foil? I thought this was for either liking, disliking or making it with other ingredients? Maybe even "Make Over" recipes. If you don't like to use foil then don't!! All of your remarks are not what we are looking for on here! We want to know if the recipes are good or not that's all!!

Made this and loved it!! Although I did use this a graham cracker crust as i didn't like how this one turned out. This was the 1st dessert gone at our church dinner.

I did not make this but it sounds so good. I to will not let foil touch my food. I will use parchment paper. I also grew up with foil and my mom used aluminum pots and pans. They have found aluminum pockets in the brain of people that died of Alzheimers.

my lord I grew up using foil, good god a lot of us did and I don't think that aluminum foil has anything to do with the living or the dying in a significant amont.

And where in the world did you hear that about foil? I went looking and found this. Although it is talking about BBQ'ing. "Use aluminum foil. Make tiny holes in a piece of foil and place it on the grill underneath your meat. The holes let the fat drip down, and the foil reduces the amount of smoke the billows back up. Wrapping the meat completely with perforated foil is an even better idea." Just unreal the "things" that come up that are supposedly unhealthy!

I can't wait to try this recipe, it looks so good and yes you can substitute dried beans, or cooking marbels instead of foil to bake the pastry with, I agree, I would never use foil as it is a carcinogen.
