A real winner here! This dessert is very easy to make, showy to serve and delicious (but light, and not overly sweet) to eat. The crust puffed up and browned nicely in my convection oven. I ended up pricking it with a fork to deflate a little. Excellent and recommended. I got more like 16 pieces out of mine :^)

    "Wow," was the word of the night with this dessert! I made it really quickly as my in-laws were coming to dinner. Everyone loved it and between the six people eating it, there was not much left over. It was fabulous and so easy to make. I do have to agree with another reviewer who mentioned that creaming the cream cheese first a little at a time with the milk would make a difference. I did not do that and I had a few chunks of cream cheese in the pudding mix. It was still really good and I am looking for another reason to make it again!

    Just a note on the "soggy crust" review. The last time I made this after I made the crust I turned on the broiler in my oven and broiled it for 2 or 3 minutes to get it nice and brown and crispy. Worked out perfectly!

    Made this for dessert for Easter dinner, and I can hardly move as I write this review. This was reallllllly good! I added just about a half teaspoon of vanilla to the pudding mix, seemed to make the vanilla flavor come out. Also, when blending the cream cheese and milk, cream the cheese first, then add the milk slowly. DH wants me to make this again (not tomorrow though :o)...) and put some bananas in it. Yum! :o)
