To prepare, remove the pie from its freezer packaging. Allow it to thaw in the refrigerator for a recommended period, typically a few hours, until the filling is fully softened but still holds its shape. Once thawed, slice the pie with a sharp knife, dipping the knife in hot water between cuts for cleaner slices. Serve chilled. It pairs well with coffee or a glass of milk. For an extra touch, you can add whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

How to keep the rest
After thawing and serving, any remaining pie should be covered tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Store it in the refrigerator. It is best consumed within a few days of thawing to maintain its optimal texture and flavor. Do not refreeze the pie once it has been thawed.
