  • 5 taste the mixture to see if you need to add more of the sugar to suit your taste buds.
  • 6 blend well until the cream cheese is soft and easy to work with.
  • 7 next, fold in your cool whip with a spatula-do not use an electric mixer to do this.
  • 8 blend together until well mixed.
  • 9 next, add in the pecans, bananas, strawberries, cherries, and the pineapple.
  • 10 once everything has been blended together place your pie mixture in your pie shell.
  • 11 chill in the refrigerator for about 3 or 4 hours or just long enough for it to set and get firm.
  • 12 before you serve it, melt some of the chocolate icing in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds.
  • 13 drizzle it over your pie and serve!

  • 15 this recipe can be made different ways.
  • 16 sometimes if i make my own piecrust i will add the pecans in the crust.
