This is so yummy!! A family favorite! We usually have this at the holidays, but also at Presidents day coming up! It would also be a lovely dessert for Valentines Day. I believe the original source was a Pillsbury Cookoff Booklet. Prep time is a guestimate. Cook time includes chilling time.

I found this about 30 years ago as a prize winning recipe in a magazine. I've since tweaked it to "healthy-fy" it a little. The crust really is worth the little bit of effort it is. A very different taste and texture from the usual graham cracker crust, nutty and crunchy, really good!
