I lowered the lemon juice per other's suggestions to 1/3 cup. My pie set up nicely, topped with cherries, very tasty but yet not the best cheese cake I've ever had. Not quite sure what I didnt like about it...just was different. Probably won't make it again, we are eating it but it's a slow go.

Pie never set up! It tasted so good, but it was a soft mess.

I made this twice Once for Christmas, and again last night for New Years. Taste awesome! The difference is I used 1/3 cup lemon juice, and used 1 and 1/2 packs of cream cheese, Instead of store purchased graham cracker crust, I made my own graham cracker crust which really makes a big difference in taste and texture, topping used defrosted sweetened sliced strawberries drained. You can pour a little of the juice on top doesn't make difference. Pie set perfectly, and family fell in love. Will try crushed pineapples next time.

Incredible pie! My momma made this for me as a kid, and I've been loving it for close to 30 years! One alteration I make to it is that I use whipped cream cheese instead of the brick cream cheese. I find it gives it more texture.

This recipe is from the Eagle Brand Condensed Milk can wrapper. I have been making this recipe since the early 90's. One of my favorite deserts. Can you say addictive? I use frozen strawberries drained instead of cherries. I like the taste better. Always a big hit!!

OK, I'm reading all of these reviews stating the pie won't set.
Use 1/3 cup of lemon juice. The original recipe calls for 1/3 cup. The 1/2 cup is too much. Don't cover the pie when you chill it .

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.
