Bake at 350 degrees until lightly brown, about ten minutes. Cool completely. FIRST LAYER One 8 ounce package of cream cheese, soft at room temperature One cup of sugar One 8 ounce carton of cool whip Cream together cheese and sugar. Add cool whip and spread over cooled crust. SECOND LAYER One 6 ounce package of chocolate instant pudding. One 6 ounce package of vanilla instant pudding. Three cups of milk Whip together and pour over cream cheese layer. Let stand for 10 minutes. THIRD LAYER Spread with 8 ounce carton of cool whip Optional: Garnish with shaved chocolate or pecans. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

I use it all the time, but substitute melted butter for the vegetable oil. I mix the ingredients in a bowl to form the dough and roll it out and then coax it in to the pan because I don't think I'd be able to mix thoroughly re the recipe method given, and suck wind at doing the push-in method. I find it works for both single and double pie crust. The recipe referenced here makes 1 crust. I decreased the salt to 1/2 tsp and the sugar to 1 tablespoon. If I need to blind bake, I put a second pan on top of the pie crust with parchment paper between, flip the pie over, and bake as directed in recipe. Works for both sweet and savory pies.
