"Delicious! I used frozen raspberries as there were none fresh at the grocery store. I also used raspberry jello mix instead of unflavoured gelatin, put the sugar in with the berries instead of with th..." See moree cream cheese and it still turned out wonderful! I added a little honey to the crust and I think that next time I will add just a little butter and a lot of honey and when it freezes it will harden, instead of having to cook the crust. Wonderful, easy, delicious and seemingly impossible to screw up! I would recommend it to everyone!"
