- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- Fresh cherries for garnish (optional)
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is well combined and fluffy.
- Carefully mix in the cherry pie filling, ensuring the cherries are evenly distributed without overmixing.
- In a separate bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until well combined. This will serve as the crust.
- In a serving dish or individual cups, layer the graham cracker mixture at the bottom, followed by the cherry cheesecake mixture on top.
- Cover the dessert and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Once chilled, garnish with fresh cherries if desired and serve.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
- This dessert can be made a day in advance for better flavor.
- Feel free to substitute other fruit fillings if desired.
