This pie has been a hit in my family, and it keeps well in the fridge. Even the extra couple of slices are great within the next day or two. I'm new here. Just found Bake Space through Google, and I registered because I saw that no one left a comment. I clipped this recipe from the magazine you mentioned and have made it 3 times! I'm glad that you shared it, because I left my recipe behind while visiting my brother.
