Good dessert -- I made this pie for a barbecue and it was very popular. There were a few modifications: When I sliced the bananas I tossed them in lemon juice and a little confectioner's sugar before layering them on the crust bottom. Also we only had an 8 oz. tub of whipped topping so I used that and found the cream cheese mixture hard to "spread" on the bananas -- I think it would have been more spreadable if I'd used the full 12 oz. of whipped topping. Also we used strawberry pie filling on top which was really good. Next time I make this I will probably cut up a few strawberries on top as well or maybe pipe some decorative whipped cream on top to make it prettier.

very good even better with strawberry topping instead of the apple it called for.. very easy to make
You can also take out the fruit and add one package of Kool aid. it is very good this way a southern thing so i've been told
I made this pie but used Cherry Pie filling instead. Oh it was so good very light and creamy. It also was extremely easy and quick to make!
Threw a football viewing party. A dozen or so attended the potluck gathering and I made my usual guacamole dip and BBQ'd brauts. My mom had recently given me a THREE pound container of cream cheese (gee thanks Costco) and I had no idea what to do with it. Not wanting to waste it I smothered a gob of it in cocktail sauce for an appetizer along with Wheat Thins and a cheese knife for spreading... very nice. I had never in my life made a dessert but looked on iine and found this Dream Cheese Pie recipe. Appeared simple enough to make and I still had plenty of Philadelphia Cream Cheese left so I gave it a shot. Wow... it was THEE hit and both pies were eaten while other bakery bought pies were just nibbbled on! Fantastic!! The only thing I changed was using strawberry filling instead of apple... can't go wrong with bananas ans strawberries!! Can't wait to make this again. Next time I'll place a few fresh strawberries on top as well (always abundant here in Southern California). Thanks Dee Dee Perez!:)
My family couldn't believe how great this pie is. The bananas MADE this pie. I didn't have to refrigerate it long to serve it as it is ready within 30 minutes as far as firmness. Make sure you make two of these as it will be gone before you know it!
Yummy!! Easy no bake inexpensive to make!! I made it exactly per recipe except I used blueberry filling instead. Yummy! I couldn't wait to try it so I had a piece only after 2 hours in the fridge and it was great. Thanks for the recipe.
I made 2 of these pies one Cherry & one Blueberry for our family thanksgiving followed the recipe 2 a T. this was so easy everyone LOVED them. will be making again & again. I like how easy it is to change flavors. The cost is nice also. Should be able to fit into most any ones budget.
Cream Cheese mix was good but the pie filling not so much the family preferred my old recipe much better it was quick and easy but quick and easy is not always the best way to go..
