This was easy and delicious. I used fresh raspberries instead of pineapples. I washed the raspberries, mashed them and fold into the cream cheese mixture. Don't overmix because the raspberries give the pie a beautiful white/pink/red colouring.

This filling was delightful! I made it to fill some miniature tartlets; the crust was a cream cheese/shortbread type of crust that I pre-baked in the oven. Before starting the filling, I dumped the pineapple in a colander to drain. I mixed the cream cheese and sugar together, then added the pineapple as follows: I picked up the pre-drained pineapple by large handfuls (approx. 3/4 to 1 cup each) and squeezed out as much juice as possible, then added it to the slowly mixing cream cheese/sugar mixture (I used my KitchenAid). After it was well-mixed (I scraped it down with a rubber spatula and remixed), I gently folded in the whipped topping. I let it chill in the fridge for about an hour, then piped it into the tartlet cups. Mental note to future self: If piping it into anything (even with a large decorating tip), whirl the drained, squeezed pineapple in the food processor before adding it to the mixture. Repeatedly cleaning out the tip wasn't the high point of making this recipe. :( LOL That said, the filling was delicious...kind of like a chunky pineapple mousse. This would make an excellent cake filling (middle). I would also like to try this with other fruits, in lieu of the pineapple.

This was pretty good, but lacked a little flavor for me. Too much cool whip maybe? I strained the pineapple through a fine sieve and then patted it dry with some paper towels. The consistency was just okay... maybe I drained it too well. It was a little stiff and could have stood to be a little creamier. If I make it again, I won't be so crazed about straining the pineapple. Maybe a tiny bit of juice would improve the flavor and make it creamier. I used a graham cracker crust which seemed to go well with the filling.

Made this last night for a small get together and the flavor was wonderful! The consistency was a little runny for a pie but probably my fault for not draining the pineapple really really well. I think next time I will also give the pineapple a whirl or two in the food processor for a smoother texture. Definitely will make again!

This was delicious. A light and cool dessert any time of the year.
I asked DH how he liked it and if he would like me to make it again sometime. He said "I'm eating it, you make it".
Thank you for a great cheesecake recipe.

This is excellent. It reminded me of the Millionairs Pie my Aunt used to make but this one is not too sweet like it was. I also added some toasted pecans. Thanks for the great recipe.

I made this for company on the weekend and it was absolutely delicious. Light and refreshing. It was the easiest dessert I have ever made. A definite keeper and 5+ stars.

For something so easy to make, this packs a real taste wallop!! I made only the filling to use as a spread for graham crackers and this gingersnaps....perfect, perfect, perfect. I had to use brown sugar as I discovered I was out of white, but I think it was a serendipitous replacement. The richer flavor really complements the pineapple. Great stuff, thanks for posting!

Just made this for supper tonight, and it was fabulous! We had guests, and they wanted the recipe. Makes up quickly and tastes like a million. Tastes a lot like the old Millionaire Pie that Furr's Cafeteria used to make, but not as rich or fattening! I sprinkled chopped pecans across the top-----too, too good! Also used Splenda in place of the sugar.
