09 Step

2 hrs
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the dessert to chill completely. (120 minutes)
For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese.
To prevent the graham cracker crust from becoming soggy, you can blind-bake it for 8-10 minutes before adding the cream cheese filling.
Feel free to experiment with different pie fillings, such as apple, peach, or even a homemade fruit compote.
If you prefer a less sweet dessert, reduce the amount of sugar in the cream cheese filling.
For a more elegant presentation, pipe the whipped topping onto the dessert instead of spreading it.

Feb 24, 2025I found that baking it for a little longer (around 25 minutes) helped the filling set perfectly.

May 12, 2024I substituted the graham crackers with Oreo crumbs for a chocolate twist, and it was amazing!
