Butternut Brownie Pie

Oh My Gosh, this pie was WONDERFUL! I made it, ate almost the whole thing, raved about it and then my mom called me to get the recipe so she could make it for a ladies meeting at church. Everyone told her that she outdid herself and asked for the recipe. It was easy to make too. Thanks for submitting it Candi!

This is my favorite pie. Its a pie that Lubys restaurant serves. This is the same recipe they use and Ive been going there for years just to eat this fabulous dessert.

I was looking at a link to the 5 star recipes page and seen this recipe. I thought the ingredients were kind of odd, but I liked that it had no crust. My nephew wanted to bake something when visiting so we chose this and neither of us had tried it before. It had a flavor I have never tasted before of butter pecan mixed with gooey and crispy merengue. I used honey grahams as it didn't specify. Strangely the graham cracker was barely distiguishable, in taste, which was preferrable. I used sprayed lite whipped cream in a can on top to save time and a little fat. I have never had one of these pies, so it was a tad too sweet for me from the cookies, but I can see why the other reviewers like it.

Crispy, Crunchy, Chewy, Yummy! I used p sugar with the w cream and whipped in the Magic Bullet.

Really, really good pie. I have made it 3x this week. I like it best topped with a vanilla mouse filling. I also put a little of the batter on a silpat next to the pie on a cookie sheet and then crumble it on top of the mousse filling, along with some shaved chocolate. To die for!

This is an awesome recipe! Thanks for sharing, Candi!

This is very good. I have never had anything quite like it before. I left out the pecans because of teeth issues and I baked it in a rectangular pan instead of a pie tin. Very very good and I'll definitely make it again. Husband said it reminds him of divinity candy.

Growing up in Texas, Luby's was a big player in my family's After Church Lunch roulette and a frequent mid-week dinner choice too. Their butternut brownie pie was my favorite thing. Living in VA now, I haven't had it many years. This is easy to make and is just as I remembered. Creamy, crunchy, rich and delicious. I only made a few changes. I made a German chocolate cake the day before that required 6 egg yolks, so I used all six whites in the pie and baked in a 9-inch cake pan and baked just a few minutes longer. Also, I remembered when I was a kid and dissected the pie, it was made with Ritz crackers instead of graham crackers so I subbed in a sleeve of Ritz. I know the official Lubys recipe says grahams but in the late 70s/early 80s it was Ritz. This was a great treat. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
