This was one of the numerous recipes that my mother passed down to me and was a beloved summertime treat in our home.

Reviews
I USED TO MAKE THIS YEARS AGO AND I ASK MY AUNT FOR THE RECIPES. DELICIOUS!! I USED SWERVE INSTEAD OF WHITE SUGAR.
I had great expectations for this recipe, but it didn’t work for me. After reviewing 5 other similar recipes, I was drawn to this one due to the use of lemon juice. While it tasted great as I licked the beaters for the cream cheese mixture, the lemon juice overpowered the pie so much that I couldn’t even taste the bananas. I followed the recipe, but assembled it differently. I didn’t fold the whipped cream with the cream cheese, instead I spread the cream cheese mixture on the bottom of the pie (without the whipped cream), added the sliced bananas, then the blueberry pie filling, and topped it off with 8 oz. of Cool Whip. I’d eaten a pie like this when I visited family in Louisiana at age 14. It was so delicious, I took careful note of how it was made (I was a cook even then), but haven’t made it until now at age 58. I will make this pie again, but will substitute sour cream for the lemon juice. I do use lemon juice in a blueberry crumble cookie bar I make, and that’s why I thought it would work nicely here, but, for me, it didn’t. Live and learn.
Delicious and better the next day. Huge hit with my boyfriend and his girls!
*I used 1.5 cups of heavy cream for extra fluff *Added half cup of melted white chocolate mixed into main mixture *No bananas used *Used a berry medley pie filling to top (1 can)
Just put it in the refrigerator. Used the leftover blueberry sauce from breakfast. I gave it 5 stars because the sauce is good from another AR recipe and the cream cheese filling is finger licking good.
This was yummy! It’s my kids favorite dessert now.
Great recipe! I needed to use up some cream cheese, blueberries, etc., and this was the perfect pie to make.
