Made this to take to dinner at the shelter the other night. Everybody loved it! Made specifically for the diabetics; but all loved it...in spite of the "healthy aspect". :) Many asked for recipe and will make again.

Yummy! But I had a problem spreading the cream cheese mixture on the crust. The crust kept coming up. Did anyone else have this problem or have a solution?

Notice the recipe makes one 9 inch pie..

I'm not sure where you're seeing that....this recipe is made in a 9" x 13" dish, that will produce 24 nice size servings with ease.

Recipe tastes good! Sadly the nutritional info is misleading. Notice the recipe makes one 9 inch pie...yet states it makes 24 servings. Have you ever cut one pie into 24 slices??? Me neither. A pie is typically 12 servings so you can pretty much double the fat carbs and calories you are expecting. I used low fat grams and vegetable spread and half milk half soy milk to lighten the carb load and make it slightly more diabetic friendly but it still packs a big carb cal fat sugar punch so beware.

DH declared this dessert a keeper. I used 1/2 the amount of rum extract and that was plenty for our taste.
