I made it! Loved it! I bought a 2-pack of frozen crusts in an aluminum pan from Aldi's for $3. Let the crust thaw. Used unsalted butter, imitation vanilla extract, and concentrated lemon juice, not fresh. Easy and delicious! My 87 year old neighbor went back for a second piece--that's a compliment!

Wow! I never knew I can make a pie so easily. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.

Wow Raffi I definitely learned something new today from turning into your show water pie it looks so decadent rich and delicious but at the same time so easy to make. And the main ingredient is water but it has the taste of the lemon and the butter that you cut and beautiful little pads and just let it melt while it baked in the oven with a perfect recipe

Water Pie Are you kidding me? Never thought in a million years that something like this could ever exist. Thank you for the history on this water pie and yes they must have all been pastry chefs at that time in order to conjure up this recipe like this. I'm still Baffled by the main ingredient. Now I'm curious I need to try making this. Thanks for the share.
