Cheesecake Pie

As promised, here is the recipe for the cheesecake pie.  Oh my gosh, it was so good!  I did have a bit of a problem...more on that to come.


First, start with the following ingredients:
- a tub of whipped topping (I used light)
- a box of cheesecake pudding mix
- a reduced fat graham cracker crust
                                                            - your favorite cheesecake topping



This is so easy!  In a mixing bowl, fold the cheesecake mix into the whipped topping (thawed).  Refrigerate 1 hour.  Transfer the cooled pie filling into the graham cracker crust.  Top with anything (berries, caramel, chocolate, etc.)


Ok - here's my problem.  YOU NEED TO FREEZE THIS for a while to get the filling to work right.  Well, the berries froze too and that was not great to eat.  Though it looks pretty, I wouldn't put berries on it unless I were to top each piece individually upon serving.

I am going to try this again for the fall and add caramel!
