    So good... I have a small mini-pie crimper; halved the recipe & made four mini-pies for portion control. I also used Splenda instead of the sugar, and a berry-cherry blend. My spouse is very, very happy right now; thanks! - 3/10/12

    Very yummy! The only change I made was I used 1/2 tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice instead of the whole tablespoon of the 5 spice mixture. A tablespoon tasted too strong for me so I used less. It was definitely the best tasting berry pie I have ever made! - 7/16/10
