It's very good! I used 1/4 of the lime juice and 1/2 of the whip cream. Also put sugar on the crust and baked it for 5 minutes. I'll make it again any time.

I tried this receipe last night so I could share with my co-workers and they loved it. I used a graham cracker crust instead of the pretzel crust. Thanks for the receipe.

With fat-free Cool Whip, artificially sweetened condensed milk, and a margarine with no trans fats, it's not only delicious, it's good for you too!

Haven't tried doing this recipe but looks yummy and worth serving to friends and guests. Although, I still need to look for a store selling Cool Whip. It may be expensive making it here in this part of the world but it could be worth it.

I haven't made it yet. I thought about a graham cracker crust. It would be even sweeter. When I do make it I think I will use a graham cracker crust
