Cakespy: Pumpkin Pie in a Chocolate Chip Cookie Crust
So I made this (or the crust at least) last night. This was the result:

I really don't think baking soda has any place in a pie crust? The crust expanded just like a cookie, and I watched in horror as my crust got bigger and bigger and my pie got smaller and smaller.
Not only that but the filling didn't set up at all, and the crust underneath it was completely soggy and waterlogged. Not exactly delicious. Super bummed as it sounded so delicious.
Did I do something wrong?

Thanks for the input. I think I might try again without baking soda, seems like that would leave all of the flavor with none of the expansion. :) Will also be sure to let the crust rest (I was in a rush, hehe), and fill it completely. I did make a pretty big 'lip' to the crust (trying to be decorative?), which probably contributed to the mutant-crust, so I'll skip that next time. :)
