Personal Notes:
If you want a crisper, harder crust that will stand up to a cream filling long before serving, decrease butter to 1/2 cup and add 1 egg yolk mixed with 2-3 T water. I have made it both ways and either way is fine. The above recipe says to eat it within 4 hours of filling, or it gets soggy but I think it still tastes good.
