Notes
Soften cream cheese properly
Let it sit at room temperature for 30–45 minutes. Cold cream cheese creates lumps that are hard to fix later. Don’t rush the chilling time
The pie needs at least 4 hours to set, but overnight chilling gives the best texture and flavor. Fold, don’t mix aggressively
When adding whipped topping, fold gently to keep the filling light and airy. Adjust texture based on preference
