Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I have been looking for a blackberry pie to use up some fresh picked ones. This is the only one I found that I thought sounded good but for the other reviews. So what I did instead was to mix up the eggs milk vanilla and cook it like a custard BEFORE putting it in the pie. It set up pretty good that way.

the crust burnt while I was waiting for the custard filling to thicken. In the end it didn't even thicken at all, was watery.
i think the proportions are wrong--this is definitely for two pies.

I've made this pie several times....always a hit! I bake about 45 mins in 400* oven. Have made it using blueberries & raspberries....even better w/ combo of blueberry/raspberry/blackberries! YUM!

this seems too easy because it is. even after cooking an Hr it comes out watery. yuck
I had to bake the pie for 40 minutes and it came out very watery. Any suggestions?
...what exactly am i to do with the sugar?
Most likely you should combine it with the egg mixture. That's the only place it makes sense to add it.
