A co-worker brought this in for myself and my wife to try. I was apprehensive at first (I don't usually like pies) but was completely won over on my first bite! I came home from work and started searching RZ for the recipe. To my surprise, no one had sent it in. I ended up finding similar ones on the site, but none that used the Rice Krispies as the crust. Personally, I think this made the pie better (and was why I loved it). I finally found the recipe on and knew I had to submit it first thing! I have left the directions alone but substituted the brand names of the products my co-workers used (since I KNOW how AMAZING this is). I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! Ingredients:
3 cups rice krispies (or other toasted rice cereal) |
1/4 cup brown sugar (firmly packed) |
6 tablespoons karo light corn syrup (or other light corn syrup) |
1 (8 ounce) package philadelphia light cream cheese, softened (or other light cream cheese) |
1 cup domino powdered sugar (or other powdered sugar) |
1 (8 ounce) can dole crushed pineapple, undrained (or other crushed pineapple) |
1 cup cool whip free (or other frozen, fat free or light whipped topping) or 1 cup cool whip lite, thawed (or other frozen, fat free or light whipped topping) |
pam cooking spray (or other cooking spray) |
1 (12 ounce) jar maraschino cherries (optional) |
Directions:
1. Set all of your ingredients out where you can get at them. Make sure they are all at room temperature. This is VERY important for the Cool Whip® and the Karo® Corn Syrup.
2. Combine Rice Krispies®, Brown Sugar, and Karo® Corn Syrup. Mix well.
3. Press mixture evenly and firmly into the bottom and on to the sides of a 10-inch pan coated with Pam® Cooking Spray. Chill in refrigerator.
4. In large mixing bowl, beat Philadelphia® Cream Cheese and Domino® Powdered Sugar until smooth.
5. Stir Dole® Crushed Pineapple into the Cream Cheese and Sugar mixture.
6. Fold Cool Whip® Whipped Topping (again, make sure it has thawed COMPLETELY) into the Cream Cheese, Sugar, and Pineapple mixture.
7. Pour mixture into chilled crust.
8. Freeze about 3 hours or until firm.
9. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving.
10. (OPTIONAL) Serve garnished with maraschino cherries.
