As a matter of fact, I think its spicy chicken sandwich is amazing. It&#8217;s really more that it&#8217;s in the opposite direction from everywhere else I usually travel. Out of sight, out of mind, I guess.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, this pie is pretty dang good. Now, fast food pies are kinda my jam. I started ranking fast food restaurants by the quality of their pies as a kid, so believe me when I say that this one is definitely worth seeking out.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Popeyes-Raspberry-Cream-Pie-Coating.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Popeyes Raspberry Cream Pie Coating\" title=\"Popeyes Raspberry Cream Pie Coating.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It has everything there is to love about a single serving pie, all wrapped up in a cute paper sleeve. You&#8217;ve got a flaky, perfectly tender, crisp exterior surrounding smooth, creamy, sweet filling. The raspberry flavor comes through loud and clear and is excellently complemented by the rich, creamy cheesecake accompaniment.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Popeyes-Raspberry-Cream-Pie-Innards.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Popeyes Raspberry Cream Pie Innards\" title=\"Popeyes Raspberry Cream Pie Innards.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If I have one criticism, it&#8217;s this: If this pie had been billed as &#8220;Raspberry Cream&#8221; rather than &#8220;Raspberry Cheesecake,&#8221; I wouldn&#8217;t have known the difference. There wasn&#8217;t enough tang to qualify as cream cheese. While there was nothing wrong with the pale side of the filling (side note, the line down the middle was perfect in my pie, ensuring an equal and even distribution of both flavors), it just didn&#8217;t read as &#8220;cheesecake&#8221; to me. If that&#8217;s a big detractor for you, keep it in mind but don&#8217;t let it stop you from giving this pie a shot. <\/p>\n<p>If I have another, quasi related criticism, it&#8217;s that a hint of acid would&#8217;ve taken this pie from an 8 to a 10. Just that little tart bite you get from a raspberry or a kiss of lemon to round out all that sweetness and cut through the richness of the filling would&#8217;ve made all the difference.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>This sweet treat is only available for a limited time at participating locations.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Popeyes&#8217; Raspberry Cheesecake Fried Pie is a deep-fried pocket of deliciousness sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
