If I would have rated this the first day, I would have only given it a 3, maybe 4 stars. It's really not a true pie, it's more of a sloppy coffee cake or a torte. The cake part, the "crust", was not sweet enough for me and tasted really strange. I did use butter pecan instant pudding and maybe that had something to do with the off taste, though the texture of the "crust" was fine. So anyway, at first my thought was, "it's ok, but I wouldn't make it again". However, after letting it sit overnight and having a piece the next morning, it was better. Then, I covered it and put it in the fridge and didn't have any until the next day. After 2 days in the fridge, it was FABULOUS! The flavors all blended, the crust didn't taste funny anymore, and I probably ate 1/4 (of the double recipe I made in 9x13) myself. Then the rest of the family finished it off after my raving about how good it was. Most baked things taste best fresh and quality goes down with age. This one does the exact opposite and gets better. It's a strange dessert, but DEFINITELY worth making.
