Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Press the remaining crust mixture into the bottom of a well greased 9×13 baking dish.

Bake for 15 minutes.

Blend together the filling ingredients, and spread them over the pre-baked crust in the baking dish.

Top with the reserved crust mixture crumbled.

Bake for 1 hour.
