    1. This is really good! Made for a small party and modified recipe for friend who’s gluten free and vegan. Made her Oreo pie crust recipe with gluten free Oreos and Myorkas Vegan Butter using same qty as in recipe for one crust. For filling replaced the sweetened condensed milk with condensed coconut milk and the whipping cream with 2 – 10 oz. containers of Truwhip, a vegan whipped topping. (Originally bought some Cool Whip thinking that was dairy free but then discovered years ago they changed their recipe and it now includes milk and milk protein). I opted to use 6 oz. mason jars to create individual servings and garnished with dark chocolate shavings. With modifications it was still very smooth and creamy tasting. Made above recipe for 2 pies and 1 crust and it was just enough to fill 16 – 6 oz jars. Enough for party and several to keep for my household. Since they stay in the freezer I can easily see making a batch and having them on hand for treats and unexpected company. Will definitely experiment with other fruits as well.

  1. Silly me. I thought I read to FREEZE this, but had switched between the Oreo Crust recipe and this just enough to land on a page that said โ€œChillโ€ for 4 hours, so into the Fridge it went. The Oreo crust was amazing (although hard to get out into a โ€œsliceโ€ without crumbling) but the cherry filling was more like pudding. Still tasty, but a weird consistency for a pie with ice cream in the title. Finally on the 2nd (store bought crust) pie we wised up and tried sticking it in the freezer, and BAM, it was the consistency I expected. Thats all my fault and I might make it again and freeze it this time. Wanted to test the recipe to see if I wanted to make it for a friends birthday party. I might try some of the other no bake pies before I decide which one to make. Thanks for the tasty recipe.

  2. This was not only easy but really delicious brought 1 to a friend’s had the other one for home !!! Everyone loved it !!! Ty ๐Ÿ˜Š
