Made this during a recent camping trip it was delicious and a great departure from our standard camping desserts-I premade the shell at home and kept in the cooler then on the evening we had the pie I prepped the rest of the ingredients-it was a huge hit and a must have on our next trip!

because my family isn't crazy about nuts but we love chocolate, in place of the pecans, I put in a layer of crushed "crispy crunch chocolate bar". WOW!!!
