There are so many alterations you can make to this recipe. You can leave it without a crust or add a complete crust to the top of the dessert. It is possible to mix other types of fruit (such as pineapple or strawberries) to change up the flavor. Just make sure they are fruits that don’t fall apart.
You can certainly add a bit more cool whip to this recipe to balance out the sweetness. However, I suggest the extra creamy cool whip to make it as delicious as it can possibly be. Just know for certain, though, that whatever you do to this dessert, it will be a family favorite.
