The original recipe didn't state any particular order or method for combining the cream, pudding mix and cream cheese. Mine came out very lumpy and it wouldn't get smooth no matter how much I beat it with a mixer. I think the above method should work, but it may be tricky getting the cream cheese folded into the pudding because everything is so thick. The flavor is ok, but I'm not sure that it's worth all those carbs for such small servings. The original recipe also called for canned sugar free cherry pie filling, but the carbs in that were more than I wanted to splurge on so I decided to use berries instead.
