I prepared this recipe in a fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Experiment, if you like with several smaller tart pans or a pie dish. If you try a pie dish line the bottom with a parchment paper disc. Bake in a square pan and cut into any shape you like (fingers, diamonds or square), before they cool.
