I’m making this now. My cookie layer is extremely thick. I used a 9″ pie dish and its so full I’m not going to be able to fit all the peanut butter filling. Have you had this issue?
Hugs & Cookies xoxo says
My cookie was verrrry thick too but it all fit.
Theresa says
I was worried about it but it turned out perfectly! We had a dinner party and everyone loved it!
I think it would be good a tad bit frozen (not completely however).

Glad it worked out well for you!
Donna Nichols says

Hugs & Cookies xoxo says
