This is primarily directed to "friedaq" but helpful to any one trying this awsome and easy pie. This sounds odd...but you MUST repeat MUST use either a plastic or glass bowl! If you you use a steel mixing bowl it will never ever ever set up! You also must put these ingredients in in the correct order..or it will never work. Cream cheese...sweetened condesed milk...mix well...fold in lemon juice w/ vanilla extrtact added to the lemon juice use a spatula.

I was COMPLETELY disdappointed in this recipe. I followed it to the letter and it did not set up. It was a gluey gooey mess and I wasted expensive ingredients. I chilled it overnight giving it plenty of time to set well.
This is not the first time a recipe of yours has failed, Paula.
Thumbs down!

Yes, it didn't set up quite the way I thought, will cut the lemon juice down, but it was SO good, it didn't matter. Especially not to my husband! Easy, yummy!

I made something like this and, with a cookie crust, it was took difficult to keep each slice neat. The regular dough crust would work better. Additionally, in order to avoid the appearance of too many short cuts, I would drain and fold into the batter a can of fruit, either cherries or blueberries, saving the liquid to make ice cream topping.

This was a good, easy dessert for when you're feeling like something sweet but don't want to spend hours making it. Not the best cream pie I've ever tasted though. I'll probably make it again just because it's so easy.

We can't get enough of this pie! My brother and I are visiting our parents and we've made my dad make it about 6 times in the last few weeks. lol. We like it plain with no cherries. The tartness is so yummy. It is a little soft but it's worth it. yum!

The taste is out of the world. But the pie never set. I made two for to bring to a Christmas Eve dinner, and the other for Christmas day. They both were in the refrigerator for more than 4 hours.
(the second one over night They were runny and messy to cut, never gelled. Not going to make this combination again.

I grew up on this, and it's equally good with canned blueberry filling instead of the cherries. We have a large family so my mom used to make one of each so we could have a slice of both. This is an awesome recipe!

I first started making this pie in the 70s when I was a young cook with little ones toddling around my house. Nice to see this recipe again -- it's always a hit.
