The creme brulee pie at Hill Country Chicken made me want to try this recipe. This recipe yields a pie that is overly sweet, and as one reviewer mentioned - tastes nothing like creme brulee.
Do not waste your time on this recpie of creme brulee pie is what you're after.

Decadent and delicious. This is my favorite pie and one of my favorite desserts. In turns out wonderfully every time. The custard is rich, thick, and creamy, and the melted sugar topping provides a lovely, crunchy contrast to the filling.
