This took over two hours to bake at 275, but it came out really well once it did set. I actually had a little more mixture than would fit into two deep dish pie shells, I definitely recommend making sure to get deep dish ones. Also if you've never used praline paste, it appears to really just be hazelnut butter with a little sugar added... it took me forever to realize this as I kept finding "hazelnut flavored" paste and I thought I needed to find a "plain" variety.
