I was not impressed with this. I made apple pie and pumpkin pie. The crust was tough when it was finished, over cooked, and I knocked off a min and a half from the crust pre-bake time. also the cupcakes stuck in the nonstick muffin tins. I sprayed the second batch and they came out better they still stuck. I think I would try it again but only one more time. If they don't come out goo the next time, I don't think they are worth the work they take. They were so-so.

These cupcakes are amazing! I made these for a bbq at a friends house a few weeks ago and everyone loved them, I'm making them again today for girls night. :)

Pie is the new cupcake? What the hell is that supposed to mean? It looks clever as a whole, but white icing on chocolate leaves me completely disinterested. There's got to be a better choice, like, say chocolate.

The pie crust is pointless & adds no taste or wow to the cupcake ... will not make again
