If you have both a main course, and side dishes baking or roasting in the oven, then it’s not at all convenient to have to put dessert in there, too. That is, unless you have a huge kitchen and a double oven.
Worst case scenario, you could be preparing for your special Thanksgiving get together, and while everyone’s rushing through the main course to get to the dessert they’re so looking forward to, and the pie’s not ready in time before your guests have to leave.
The solution, of course, is to either make a no-bake pie, or to make one well ahead of time, so it’s ready for the big day.
And the even better news is that I’ve been scouring the internet to find the best no bake cream cheese pie recipes out there. And now I’m relishing the opportunity to share my favorites here with you!
