    I used 4 ounces cool whip and 4 ounces plain yogurt just to make it a little healthier. It was very good! I also added a couple tsp corn starch to thicken it a bit. - 10/29/10

    Consistency was excellent, but I would rather go with the extra calories and use a reduced fat cream cheese rather than fat free, which tastes nothing like cream cheese. We tried this with powdered sugar which left an aftertaste I didn't like so I wouldn't recommend using that. - 5/11/09

    This is NOT a recipe! The reduced calorie content is dependent on using specific shop brought items.
    Unhelpful to those of us who:
    a) Do not live in the US
    b) Prefer to cook properly from scratch, and not get our food from tins and packets! - 8/6/12

    I will try this recipe this weekend, it sounds yummy. I am always baking low fat ways for my family. I have used the fat free cream cheese with splender but have not tried mixing in the fat free cool whip. Thanks - 2/18/09

    Soooooo good!!! Taste just like the real thing! The only thing I changed was I used about 1/3 of the tub of cool whip and only put 1/4 cup Splenda and added a 1/4 cup sugar. We put it on our whole wheat pancakes! EXCELLENT!!! We loved it! - 6/16/08
  • JNSWAFER
    So good! Made this for a low calorie carrot cake, and it made that bad cake taste tolerable! I would also use less cool whip next time, since it is a little runny, and makes plenty! YUMMY!!!! - 5/8/08
  • CHICAGOBEAN
    Excellent topper for carrot cake!! Only comment would be to maybe not use all 8 oz of cool whip to get a thicker "cream cheese" feel to it. Otherwise, taste and consistency were spot on!! Definitely refridgerate for best consistency. - 4/7/08
  • MISTRESSANNE
    I used 1/4 cup of Clabber Girl Sugar Replacer for Baking, and full fat cream cheese got good results. I would certainly suggest trying this recipe with your favorite substitutions. - 3/13/08

    Try this with Stevia, splenda is horrible for you, and also with Reddi Wip fat free...tastes better and much better for you. - 9/23/13
