4.\tRemove partially baked crust from oven; reduce oven temperature to 375\u00b0F Spoon cheese mixture into partially baked crust. In same bowl, combine all remaining ingredients; beat until well blended. Pour over cheese mixture.
5.\tReturn to oven; bake at 375\u00b0F 35 to 45 minutes longer or until filling is puffed and knife inserted in center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edge of crust with strips of foil during last 15 to 20 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
*Prebaking the crust a few minutes helps eliminate a soggy crust.
