    This little treat is wonderful!!! My family preferred them warm. Pie crust stuck a little bit, don't use nonstick spray because the pie crust will not stay in place and you get a glob of dough. Besides that, it was easy, very tasty. The entire family asks me each year to make them for the holiday - 11/21/10

    This is great, but use full fat cream cheese. Too many plasticizers in the low fat version. - 12/25/18
