Very good but almost a little too sweet. I followed the recipe exact and I think that next time I may try to sub some lower fat ingredients to try and not only cut down on the fat but also the sweetness. I think that this recipe would be great with all different types of flavors.

I made this the night before our July 4th BBQ; we had a bunch of people coming over to celebrate. This pie was SUPER EASY to whip together in a flash - and came out smooth, creamy and tasty. Guests said it reminded them of orange sherbet. I agree that the filling should mound out of the crust, but I still wound up discarding a little bit of it just because it was my preference to not have a super-huge pie. This is a great addition to your summer-afternoon recipe collection. Would be great to try w/other flavors too (strawberry's my next choice). Thanks for sharing!! :)

I love this recipe. Very fast and easy. Perfect for the summer. It is a light and refreshing dessert. You can also use lime or lemon instead of orange. I made mine in a 8" graham cracker crust and divided the filling to make 2 pies.

Made this pie for Easter dinner. Everyone who ate it thought it was great. Also made a key lime pie from this site which wasn't nearly as good as this. Thankfully there was so much other food, there was some left over, and I got to take it back home. Yum.

This pie was fantastic! Loved the tart taste. Make sure you really soften your cream cheese to help it mix well. I used Dream Whip instead of Cool Whip. Also take the pie out a little bit before you cut it so it's easier to slice.

Very good. I made this last night for dessert and my son absolutely loved it. I thought it tasted a bit like an orage julius. I used fat free cool whip and swt cond milk, and 1/3 light cream cheese. I used the graham cracker crust 1 recipe from this site. I made up 2 pie shells after reading the reviews but I dont like a flat pie. When I first mixed it, it was a bit soupy so I put it in the fridge in the bowl to set up a bit. Then I poured it and mounded it into the crust and popped it into the freezer. I used 1 pie crust and it really wasnt that tall. I dont think it would make 2.

This pie was AWESOME! I made it just as written. There wasn't too much filling because it is the type of pie that is supposed to be mounded in the pie shell. For anyone who wants to make it, I'd recommend NO changes. Great recipe!

My family loved it, so much so that I didn't even get a slice. Does make a lot of filling. I saved half and will use later.

Pretty tasty, but it tastes just a little too much like cream cheese--I was hoping for an orange dreamsicle flavor. Also, the recipe makes a lot more filling than will fit in one pie crust.

The taste was excellent. I used fresh orange juice instead of concentrate. I had WAY too much filling. Enough to fill 2 ready-made pie crusts. But overall, pretty good.

I made this pie for thanksgiving to offset the heaviness of all the other foods eaten today. This pie is light, flavorful and VERY easy to make I will make this a must have recipe. My entire family loved it from the young to the old. I didnt make any changes to the recipe and it was great as is. I would suggest some orange slices for garnish and maybe some whip cream but without it - we still loved it.
