This sounds very good but it is not diabetic friendly. Low fat milk has the highest content of natural sugar in it as fat contains none. Moreover diabetics must watch carbs as well.....carbs turn into sugar. As a type 1 diabetic this recipe has a great number of carbs. More research needs to be done before a recipe claims to be diabetic friendly. Still searching for a pie that will work for diabetics.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":2,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2019-06-17","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"slocook805"},"reviewBody":"I've made this pie using regular pudding mix and I swap out the fat free milk for half and half.

I used a hand mixer for the pudding mixing each flavor one at a time, so each layer had some time to set up before the next layer was added and each one seemed fine as far as thickness\/firmness before adding to the pie.

This is one of my favorite pudding pie recipes. I have made it many times following the recipe exactly and have had no trouble whatsoever getting it to set up. It cut beautifully. The flavors really blend well.

Earlier I posted a comment about the pie slices falling apart. At that time it had set up for over an hour. About 6 hours later I went to cut a piece of the pie and found it had set up very nicely.
