The pie is a little tart but very refreshing. I didn't have blackberry gelatin so I used raspberry flavored with the blackberries. I was worried htat the 3 ounces of cream cheese and confectioners sugar would be enough but it was perfect. This is a pie that you could play around with different flavors of gelatin and berries. I will make this again during the up and coming summer months. Reviewed for PAC Spring 2008.
