  3. Evenly pour the mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 28–32 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the centers are slightly jiggly.
  5. Allow the pies to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edges to loosen.
  6. Transfer the pies to a wire rack and let them cool completely before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
