I was really disappointed in this pie. First, the cream cheese mixture was very runny which didn't seem right. I am certain I measured everything correctly. Then when I made the fruit mixture, it didn't say to cool it before pouring it over the cream cheese mixture so I didn't. It mixed into the cream cheese mixture instead of being on top since the cream cheese mixture was runny itself. Putting the top crust over the hot fruit mixture was difficult and the top crust softened up a lot. I won't be making this again.

Wonderful pie. Loved the smell of the coconut - it adds another dimension to this pie. The taste makes you want to keep eating it. It is a pie that I will share with all of my friends.

This pie will transport you to tropical islands faster than an airplane! Delightful creamy combination of tropical fruit with a tasty hint of coconut. However, since I have a daughter who is allergic to mango, I'm going to replace it with papaya next time.

Recipe is a little too sweet. I would cut down on the sugar a little bit, or put vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on it when serving. That seems to cut down the extra sweet taste. Really delicious pie, would definitely make it again.
