Experience, the crust gets yucky. I make 2 at a time, so I have something on hand for sudden company or church potlucks.

Often I sub a cup of peanut butter for the chocolate, and use a chocolate crust and drizzle chocolate syrup on the top just before serving, or I’ll add strawberries and a 1tsp of lemon juice.

Instant Pudding can be added, but you have to experiment with the amount of milk you need to get it they way you want it. Half a cup or less usually does the job, just enough to mix the pudding.

The cream cheese, sour cream and cool-whip are the base. Add a tsp of lemon juice if you want it to taste more like cheese cake and then top with your favorite pie filling just before serving.

I was teasing. At my house I'd be lucky to get the think INTO the freezer! If I'd written your post it would have been more like "It should last somewhere between 2 minutes and 2 hours..."

Sound like yummy ideas all. I'll try to give them a shot soon. I make a chocolate silk pie similar to the one you have there. I'll try to dig up the recipe and post it.
