Advice

Making cheese pie requires patience, skill, and the right ingredients. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F and greasing a pie dish. Make sure to use a deep dish as the cheese filling will be quite thick. Next, prepare your crust by combining your favorite type of crust mix with butter, egg, and milk and pressing it into the dish. Once the crust is ready, mix together the cream cheese, eggs, milk, and spices and pour into the crust. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the cheese filling is golden brown. Lastly, enjoy your delicious cheese pie!
