I certainly do not recall what I had as a child looking like that. Yours looks really tasty!

The pastry used was puff in this instance - I'll get Short-crust for the next one I make - it's usually a more golden colour pre-baking.

Now, off to the shops for the Thin Mint ingredients.

That is amazing! Now I want pie. Garcon!! With a dollop of ice cream, si'l vous plait!

mmmm...how many miles do I have to ride for that? ;0)

It's cooling on the windowsill. Come and get it ! ;)

Tasting notes:
When eaten cold (ie: from the fridge) this tastes more like a lemon curd tart.

I might experiment with making just the base and filling, then refrigerating, and adding the merengue topping for Lemon Merengue Pie. That could be amazing !
