I have been looking for this recipe for 15 years. Everyone loves it...especially women for some reason. It is light and tastes fantastic!!!
The flavor was good but the filling didn't thicken properly. It started to crystallize instead. I ended up putting it in the freezer because it stayed too liquid otherwise.

With the holidays at hand I had be craving a Brandy Alexander (the drink). I accidently found this recipe and I sure was glad I did. It is WONDERFUL!! My husband loved it too!! Thanks for sharing!
YUM! Made this for company a couple of nights ago and they went wild for it! Thank you for a great recipe!
A similar recipe appeared in the NYTimes magazine a gazillion years ago, and I used to make it often. It feel out of my repertoire and I was glad to be reminded if it and make it again.
Ooh, Ooh fantastic flavor with the cognac and creme de caca-not strong-just a casual hint of delightful liquer!
This is a reeeeeally good pie! Light, fluffy and sweet. Creamy, a little booze'y and with some chocolate curls on top - what woman could resist this? Girls night in!!
