This pie is absolutely delicious! I used 3/8 cup of sugar instead of Splenda and added some dried mint to the mixture, which really added to the finished product. Next time I would like to try making it with real rum instead of rum extract as I couldn't really taste the rum flavour.

Our family loves this recipe too. I use 1/3 c. sugar plus Splenda packets (or another no-cal sweetener) until it tastes sweet enough to me - depends on the mangoes. No aftertaste and lightly sweet. We are also gluten free so I either make a basic GF cookie crust or bake Annalise Robert's tart crust. Yum!

Great flavor in this pie. I made Recipe #116887 for the crust. Do be careful to stir the mixture in the frig. I got busy outside and it had thickened so just stirred in the mango then. It didn't look as pretty as it should but the flavor is great.
